Tie-Dye Street Corn Pasta Salad with Beet Salsa
What to do
Make the Dressing
Mix all ingredients for the dressing in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Make the Pasta Salad
Cook the pasta in salted boiling water for 8 to 9 minutes, until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water until cool. Transfer the pasta to the bowl with the dressing and add the grilled corn, sliced chilli pepper, and most of the feta cheese, coriander, and chives, (leaving some for garnish). Toss the salad until everything is evenly distributed. Add the beet salsa and gently fold it in being careful to not stain it completely pink and preserve the tie-dye effect. Transfer the salad to a serving platter and top with more cheese, coriander and chives and serve immediately.
Keeps well covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
