Corn, broccoli and potato salad {Ensalada de choclo con papas y brócoli}

By Layla Pujol 2 Comments

This corn, broccoli and potato salad is a great option for a refreshing summer side salad. It is made with corn, potatoes, broccoli, onion, mayonnaise, garlic, cilantro, lime juice and wasabi.

I was so excited to see fresh corn at the grocery store the other day, it’s still a bit cold here in the PNW to find it at the market yet, but just seeing corn (from California – lucky you who live there) made me happy. I’m waiting for the local corn to make Ecuadorian humitas (I’ve been dreaming of these all winter), but until then I decided to get a few ears of corn for salad to go with some grilled meat.

This salad is a variation of the typical potato salad, it is very easy to make and is a great side dish for meat and fish dishes, especially for grilled dishes as it provides a nice refreshing contrast. In Ecuador the second course or main dish is always served with a small side salad, a very popular salad is the famous ensalada rusa or Russian salad which is a potato salad with carrots, peas, corn, and other vegetables.

We have many variations of the ensalada rusa salad, some based on what you find at the market or in the refrigerator. I wanted to add a little bit a healthy component to this salad so I included the broccoli. Also while making the standard mayonnaise dressing I wanted to little bit of spiciness so I added a bit of wasabi.

    I tried a variation of potato salad today that was similar to this – there was corn and broccoli. It was very tasty. I also added some pieces (chunks) of pineapple). I think I will play around with this one also, it looks really good.

    LOVE Russian potato salad: I was born in Moscow and spent 13 years there, so the potato salad was one of the staples at any celebration.

    Your version looks great too.
