Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds medium red-skinned potatoes (about 6)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 ears corn, husks removed
2 poblano chiles, charred, peeled, stemmed, seeded and chopped (see Cook's Note)
1 cup chopped scallions (white and pale green parts only; about 5 scallions)
1 cup chopped scallions (white and pale green parts only; about 5 scallions)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook until tender when pierced with a knife, about 30 minutes. Drain the potatoes and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a grill to medium-high heat. Add the corn and grill, turning onto all sides, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Halve the potatoes and put them in a large bowl. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the corn kernels off of the cobs and add to the bowl. Add the poblano chiles, scallions, sour cream, mayonnaise and cilantro and mix gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper and serve. (The potato salad can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.)

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds medium red-skinned potatoes
3 ears fresh corn, husks removed
2 poblano chiles, charred (see page 35), peeled, stemmed, seeded, and chopped
1 cup chopped scallions (white and pale green parts only)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pot and add salted water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Add the corn and grill, turning the ears, until evenly browned on all sides, 10 minutes.
  • Halve the potatoes and put them in a large bowl. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the kernels off the corncobs and add the kernels to the bowl. Add the poblano chiles, scallions, sour cream, mayonnaise, and cilantro, and fold together. Season the potato salad to taste with salt and pepper. (The potato salad can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated. Let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.)

Tips:

  • To save time, use frozen corn kernels instead of fresh corn on the cob.
  • If you can't find poblano peppers, you can substitute green bell peppers.
  • For a spicier potato salad, add a diced jalapeño pepper to the mix.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can roast the corn and poblano peppers in a 400°F oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are slightly charred.
  • For a vegan potato salad, omit the bacon and use a plant-based mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Grilled corn and poblano potato salad is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is a great way to use fresh corn and poblano peppers, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
