Cooking Instructions and Tips

1

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 0.5 tsp salt for the macaroni.

When boiling, stir the macaroni into the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.

Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back into the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

2

Meanwhile, drain the sweetcorn. 

Grate the Cheddar.

Trim and thinly slice the spring onion. Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.

Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.

Once the pan is hot, add the sweetcorn and pepper, season with salt and pepper and cook until starting to char, 6-7 mins. Adjust the heat if necessary.

Stir only twice during this time - you want the veg to pick up some nice colour.

4

Add the whites of the spring onion, garlic and Mexican style spice and fry for 1-2 mins. 

Stir through the creme fraiche, vegetable stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).

Bring up to a boil, then lower to a simmer.

Cook, until thickened slightly, 3-4 mins. 

5

Stir the Cheddar through the sauce until melted.

Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Add a splash of water if the sauce is a little thick. 

6

Share your Mexican style street corn pasta between bowls.

Crumble over the Greek style salad cheese and sprinkle over the coriander and remaining spring onion. 

Enjoy!
