Roasted Corn And Red Pepper Relish Recipes

ROASTED CORN RELISH

Steps:

• Prepare a hot charcoal grill or preheat gas grill to high. Cover and preheat grill grate for 5 minutes.
• Lightly butter each ear of corn, then season with salt and pepper. Wrap each ear in aluminum foil.
• Clean and oil the grill grate. Place the corn, red pepper, and jalapeno on the grill and cover. Grill red pepper and jalapeno until they start to blister, but not blacken, on each side. Grill corn until it's lightly charred all over. Remove pepper, jalapeno, and corn to a cutting board as they are done.
• Brush green onions lightly with oil and place on the grill. Cook until softened and lightly browned on both sides. Remove to cutting board.
• In a medium bowl, cut kernels off each ear of corn. Remove seeds and ribs from jalapeno and red pepper, then dice and add to bowl with corn. Thinly slice green onions and add to corn and peppers along with cilantro, lime juice, lime zest, sugar, chili powder, and cumin. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

ROASTED CORN AND RED PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Soak the fresh corn in a pot of cold water for about 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 400?. Place the garlic in a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the oil, and wrap tightly. Place the bell pepper on another piece of aluminum foil. Do not wrap. Place the drained corn directly on the oven rack and roast along with the garlic and bell pepper. Remove the corn and garlic after 10 minutes and let cool slightly. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and chop. Husk the corn and, using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the cobs into a medium size bowl. Roast the bell peper, turning it every few minutes, until almost charred on all sides, for a total of about 15 minutes. Wrap the pepper in the foil and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Peel the skin off the pepper, remove the seeds and core, and chop it. Mix the corn with the chopped garlic and bell pepper and add the remaining ingredients. Taste for seasoning, adding more jalapenos if desire. Makes about 2 cups. Recipe from cookbook - Roasting, by Kathy Gurnst ISBN 0-02-051340-2 Recipe by: Roasting, by Kathy Gunst
