Sweet Corn And Dolly Parton Tomatoes
- 4 ears of sweet corn
- 2-3 heirloom tomatoes
- 1/2 cup red onion, diced
- 1 handful cilantro
- 1 handful Cotija cheese, shredded
- 1/2 lime, sliced
- 2-3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Dash salt and pepper, to taste
- Put pan on over medium heat. Melt butter. I love butter and am a bit generous, make sure to coat bottom of the pan and on the side wall a little. Cut kernels from cob and put in pan. Stir somewhat frequently. Grind in some salt and pepper.
- While this is all cooking, cut your tomatoes as you like them. I like to go seedless, but that is a family pleaser more than anything else. Set these aside. If you want to involve your kids more use grape tomatoes and have them halve them.
- Cut off a solid chunk of cilantro and chop it and sit it aside. Your corn should be done by now and hopefully you have been stirring it or letting the kids help!
- Pour it into a serving bowl, add the tomatoes, red onions, sprinkle in the cilantro, see if you need anymore salt or pepper, squeeze a little lime over and gently mix to make the colors beautiful. Sprinkle the cotija cheese across the top. Dig in and enjoy!
- If you don't like cilantro use basil and skip the cheese and add a tablespoon or so of red wine vinegar.
