Cold Asparagus and Corn Salad

There's something about a vinaigrette drizzle and some freshly-picked herbs that brings a ho-hum side dish to life! If you're bored of the same old lettuce-and-tomato salad every night, liven things up with this fresh and zippy summer salad. Even if you don't care for asparagus, try this recipe and you may just change your mind.


1. Simmer in a shallow pan of water until you can pierce the ends with a paring knife:

1 bunch of asparagus, washed and with the woody ends removed

2. Remove from stove and run ice-cold water over asparagus to stop from cooking

3. Pour into a large mixing bowl and then add:

1 can baby corn
1 white onion, sliced
A few splashes of red wine vinegar
A drizzle of olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
A pinch of chopped cilantro

Serve chilled with steak or burgers on a summer night.

Serves: 2-4.
