Soak your giant white corn overnight, for approximately 12-14 hours.  Rinse and Drain.

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Toss corn with oil, sugar and salt.

Put on a non stick baking sheet in a single layer. You can put parchment paper down first if you'd like to make it a easier cleanup.

Bake for 30-40 minutes or until slightly browned.  Every 10 minutes stir corn on baking sheet.  Keep a eye on them and remove immediately when they are brown, they can burn quickly.

Let cool, enjoy!

This is a wonderful vegetarian main dish to serve in the center of your table, with tortillas or rice and a zesty green salad. Be sure to ventilate your kitchen well when you’re grilling the mushrooms and onions indoors, but, if weather permits, you can always grill them outdoors. If you’d like to make this less spicy, then feel free to leave out the dried chiles, making a simple bell pepper sauce instead. Keep this dish vegan by swapping out the sour cream for a nondairy alternative.

Grilled Portobellos With Chile Sauce, Sour Cream and Corn Nuts

red bell pepper, quartered, stem and seeds removed

plum tomato,

yellow onion,

Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)

(10-gram) dried guajillo chile, stem and seeds removed

dried chipotle chiles

water

sour cream

lime juice

mushrooms

red onion,

cumin seeds,

garlic cloves,

maple syrup

30 grams salted, roasted corn nuts, roughly chopped

oregano leaves

Heat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit/240 degrees Celsius. Add the bell pepper, tomato and yellow onion to a medium parchment-lined rimmed baking tray, and toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and a small pinch of salt.

Arrange the peppers and tomatoes skin side up on the parchment, and roast for 22 minutes, or until softened in places. Set aside, and when cool enough to handle, peel and discard the pepper and tomato skins.

As the vegetables cook, add the dried chiles to a medium heatproof bowl and pour over enough boiling water to fully submerge. Weigh down the chiles with a small saucer and let sit for 20 minutes to rehydrate.

In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, a tablespoon of lime juice and a tiny pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside.

Place a well-greased grill pan over high heat and ventilate your kitchen well. In a large bowl, gently toss together the mushrooms, red onion, 3 1/2 tablespoons oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt.

Once your grill is hot enough, add half the mushrooms, cap side down, and half the onions. Grill the mushrooms for 5 minutes, then flip them over and grill for another 3 minutes, or until nicely charred and cooked through. Grill the onions for 4 to 5 minutes, flipping as necessary, until charred and softened (don’t worry if the layers separate further). Transfer to a large bowl. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and onions. When ready, toss the grilled vegetables with half of the cumin seeds, the remaining tablespoon of lime juice and 1 tablespoon of oil.

Once the chiles have soaked, remove them, discarding the water. Roughly chop the chiles, then add to a blender along with the roasted vegetables, garlic, maple syrup, 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon/100 milliliters of fresh water, the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Blitz until completely smooth and silky. If the mushrooms aren’t finished cooking, transfer the sauce to a small saucepan over medium heat, and gently warm through, stirring occasionally.

Pour the warm chile sauce onto a large platter with a lip, swirling to cover the surface of the plate. Use a spoon to drizzle over the sour cream, then top with the mushrooms, onions and any remaining juices. Sprinkle over the remaining cumin seeds, half the corn nuts and all the oregano, serving the remaining corn nuts alongside.

This spicy vegan watermelon salad is loaded with flavour from a fresh lime, chili and black pepper-infused dressing. Ground up salty corn nuts on top bring crunch and highlight the sweet watermelon. Ready in 30 minutes and no cheese needed!

Spicy Vegan Watermelon Salad with Corn Nuts and Basil

chilies ((see note))

black pepper

avocado oil

lime zest,

Tamari

sea salt,

watermelon ((bite sized pieces))

flaky salt,

cherry tomatoes, halved

red onion, thinly sliced

avocado,

Fresno chili, very thinly sliced ((optional))

basil

Place the ground chilies and ground black pepper in a small bowl. In a small skillet or saucepan, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, pour it over the chilies and pepper. Give it a little stir. Let it cool for 5 minutes. Then, add the lime zest, lime juice, maple syrup, Tamari, and salt. Whisk to combine and set aside.

In a food processor, grind up the corn nuts until they’re finely chopped. Set aside.

Build the salad. Arrange the chopped watermelon on a large platter. Drizzle half of the dressing over the watermelon and sprinkle a bit of flaky sea salt.

Over the watermelon, scatter the halved cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, diced avocado, sliced Fresno chili, and sliced basil. Drizzle the remaining dressing over top and season with flaky salt again. Finally, sprinkle the ground up corn nuts over top and finish with some more lime zest if you like. Enjoy immediately!

Love to try this but I need substitutes for the corn nuts, (cashew) and the dried peppers.  Can’t find in my small town?,

We tried this tonight and it was a success, no leftover for tomorrow ! Superb flavor and texture mix and while unsure about adding the sliced chili it was a good ingredient to add. To make it a meal we added black beans.

Fantastic! Unique, multi-flavor profile. We'll be making this again.
