Ingredients

  • 3 Tortilla Wraps
  • 1 tsp Chilli Powder
  • 200g Feta
  • 100g Greek Yoghurt
  • 1 or 2 Limes
  • 1 Corn On The Cob
  • 50g Butter
  • 1 Spring Onion
  • Small Bunch of Coriander (20g)
  • 20 ml Olive Oil
  • 8g Salt
  • 8g Black Pepper

Method

  1. Heat the oven to fan 180°C. Cut the tortilla wraps into small triangles. Add them to a large baking tray with 3 tbsps of oil, chilli powder and season with salt and plenty of black pepper and toss to coat.
  2. Arrange the seasoned tortilla triangles in a single layer on two large baking trays. Bake for 10-15 mins, once they come out they’ll crisp up.
  3. Meanwhile, add the feta, Greek yoghurt and 2 tbsps of olive oil into a food processor. Blitz until broken down and fluffy. Season with the zest of 1 lime, salt, pepper and lime juice, mix. Spread onto a serving plate, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. Chop the kernels off the corn. Place a medium frying pan over high heat. Once hot, add the corn and cook until charred, 3-4 mins. Turn the heat down to medium, add the butter and stir until it starts to foam and eventually turns brown, this will take around 3-4 mins. You know the butter has browned when you can smell a nutty aroma. Take it off the heat.
  5. Finely chop the coriander, stalks and all and stir through the corn.
  6. Pour the hot corn brown butter over the whipped feta and top with a sprinkle of spring onion.
