and the recipe

Onion Relish

1/2 sweet onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 jalapeno, chopped (For hot relish, leave the seeds in and for not so hot, remove them)
1 ear sweet corn, freshly cut corn off ear right before cooking it
tsp course ground salt
tsp cracked black pepper

On medium heat saute onion and garlic with salt and pepper for 2 minutes
Add the rest of the ingredients and let cook for an additional 4 minutes, while stirring frequently.
















I served this on a simple salad of:
mixed greens
avocado
cilantro and
lime juice
and a tortilla on the side, to help with the heat!

It is a very simple, yet very tasty touch for a salad or another Mexican or South American dish. I included all the seeds in mine, of course, and it was pleasantly hot for me...Topher enjoyed it, but was panting a little, so be careful. (Also when chopping). Buen provecho!
