This toast is quick and easy to make. Crispy, creamy, cheesy, and that lightly charred flavour of the grilled corn just brings it all together!
- 2 large pieces of toast, sourdough or bread of choice
- 1 large avocado
- 1 large fresh corn on the cob, grilled (or 1 Cup frozen corn)
- small handful of cilantro, chopped
- ½ lime, juiced
- salt, ground black pepper and chili flakes to taste
- pinch of garlic powder
- 1-2 tablespoon greek yoghurt, use 2 tablespoons for a creamier corn

For the fresh corn, remove the husk and grill until slighttly charred. Let cool down a little and cut the corn off the cob.
If using frozen corn, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the corn on high heat for a few minutes until lightly charred.

If you are using fresh corn on the cob, which I highly recommend when its in season. You can cook it 2 ways. Either grill it and then cut it off the cob, or cut the corn off the cob first and the fry it in a frying pan.
If using frozen corn cook it on over medium-high heat in a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the corn (fresh or frozen) season it lightly with salt and cook, stirring about every 2 minutes, until lightly charred.
