This time of the year, we see ears of fresh sweet corn everywhere we turn, tumbling out of crates at the farmers market and piled high at the grocery store. I love sweet corn and coriander so much. These flavours remind me of my Mexican trip back in 2005 when I visited my dear friend, Maria and her family.
Maria’s mom made comforting home cooked meal for me everyday. I don’t speak Spanish, she doesn’t speak English but we understood each other somehow. 🙂 I loved every bite of the meals. She used so much coriander, avocado, lime, tortilla and corn in her cooking. I hope if I visit them again one day I will have the opportunity to cook with her!
