Corn, broccoli and potato salad
Report
This Corn, Broccoli and Potato Salad combines boiled corn kernels, cooked diced potatoes, and lightly steamed broccoli with finely chopped red onion in a creamy mayonnaise-based dressing enhanced with garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and wasabi paste. The salad offers a balance of mild sweetness, fresh herbaceous notes, and a subtle spicy kick, suitable for side dishes or light meals.
Description
The salad layers three cooked vegetables: sweet corn boiled from fresh ears, tender diced potatoes, and barely steamed broccoli florets, retaining their color and slight crunch. Finely chopped red onion adds sharpness. The dressing mixes mayonnaise with crushed garlic, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and wasabi paste, creating a creamy sauce with acidity and mild heat to contrast the vegetables.
Combined gently, the salad is best served fresh but can be refrigerated before serving. It works well as a side for grilled meats or as a vegetarian option at casual meals. The wasabi paste can be adjusted or substituted with horseradish depending on availability and heat preference.
