• 1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh coriander
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
• 1 tbsp (15 mL) finely chopped candied ginger

1. Remove corn kernels from cob. In a medium pan over medium heat, add oil and sauté corn until tender and bright (about 3 minutes). Then remove to cool.
