- Pepper
- 220g mayonnaise – see corn dip recipe
- 100g blue cheese (plus extra for garnish)
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- 2 tsp horseradish
Sweet corn and Potato salad with creamy blue cheese dressing
Method
- Scrub the potatoes really well and then cut into cubes
- Place into a large pot and cover with water
- Add a good pinch of salt to the water and then bring to the boil
- Reduce to a simmer and cook the potatoes until they are only just tender when tested with a knife
- Drain the potatoes and then spread out in a thin layer so they cool quicker
- Remove the husk from the corn and cook in boiling salted water for a couple of minutes
- Drain off the water and make the dressing while waiting for the potatoes and corn to cool
- Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise and finely grated horseradish
- Crumble in the blue cheese and mix again
- Add a generous amount of cracked black pepper and a little salt to taste (depending on the blue cheese you may need little or no extra salt)
- Using a sharp knife remove the corn from the cob and then mix together with the cooled potatoes and the blue cheese dressing
- Finely chop a handful of flat leaf parsley and mix through salad and check the seasoning
- Crumble the extra blue cheese over the top as a garnish and then serve
