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

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

    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.

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