I have tried many recipes for guacamole with corn but it always seemed that something was missing. When I came up with this one I was hoping I wouldn't hear "this is good but, there is just something missing." I didn't hear that comment today! This time they think I hit it right.

How To Make roasted corn with cumin guacamole

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium heat.

Step 2

Brush corn with olive oil and place on grill. Turn every 3 to 4 minutes. Let a few kernels on each side become slightly charred. Remove from gill and allow to cool.
Step 3

Once cool, cut the kernels off the cob and set aside.
Step 4

Combine the avocado, lime juice, red pepper flakes, cumin, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher. Mix in red onion, garlic, parsley, jalapeno and tomato.
Step 5

Lightly toss in corn. Mix in sour cream; 1 tablespoon at a time to get desired consistancy.
Step 6

I served it with red and yellow bell peppers, jicama, sliced radishes and tortilla chips. But any of your favorite dippers would be fine.
