Gourmet Pizza, Part 3


I completely admit this isn't the most appetizing picture.  The most awesome thing about this pizza is that it's a little bit unexpected.  The first time I ever tried fresh corn on a pizza I was sitting in a cafe on the the strip adjacent to Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro.  It was so delicious I kept thinking that I have to try this at home but never did. 

Anyway, I came across a great recipe for a corn relish, made a few edits, and decided to give it a go as a pizza topping.  A few other things you can do with this:  (1) use it as a relish on fish, (2) add a few tortilla chipas for an indian - inspired twist on chips and salsa, or (3) fantastic pizza topping!

Ingredients

1 can whole corn kernals
1/4 red onion, chopped
1 serrano chili,  chopped (de-seed to reduce heat)
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1/4 tsp red chilli powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp chaat masala powder (careful with this ... it can get spicy)
1/2 lemon, juice
salt, as needed

1) Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.

2) Use as relish for fish, topping for pizza, or pair with tortilla chips for an awesome chips and salsa treat!
