"Elote is grilled Mexican street corn, typically served on the cob. After it's grilled, the corn is covered in mayonnaise or Mexican crema with cotija cheese, chili powder, cilantro, and lime juice."
"If you make this corn and then sprinkle it onto your avocado toast, you're bringing that entire flavor bouquet to the buttery avocado and crisp bread. It's a whole new dish, more complex than ever."
"Start with fresh corn cobs and char them in oil on your stove or grill them, and then slice the kernels into a bowl, or take a little shortcut with canned or frozen corn."
"Dress the corn in mayo, chili powder, and lime juice, then pour your mixture over smashed avocado on toasted bread - ideally sourdough for crispy."
Avocado toast has become a staple due to its health benefits and versatility. It is easy to prepare and can be customized with various toppings.
