Yellow Pepper and Corn Salad with Turmeric Dressing

This vibrant yellow pepper and corn salad with turmeric dressing is a celebration of sunshine flavours and textures. Combining the natural sweetness of charred sweetcorn and grilled peppers with the peppery bite of rocket or dandelion greens, it offers a sophisticated balance of smoky and fresh notes. The golden turmeric dressing, spiked with ginger, lime and a hint of jalapeño, provides an earthy warmth and a zestiness that ties the entire dish together beautifully.

As a versatile vegan dish, this salad works wonderfully as a light lunch or a colourful side for a summer barbecue. The combination of fresh tomatoes and crisp salad leaves makes it a heart-healthy choice that is naturally gluten-free and packed with antioxidants. For the best results, use fresh corn on the cob to achieve that authentic smoky char that defines this contemporary seasonal recipe.

Ingredients for Yellow Pepper and Corn Salad with Turmeric Dressing

  • 1 jalapeño, seeds removed, chopped

  • 1 (4-inch) piece turmeric, peeled, chopped, or 3/4 teaspoons ground turmeric

  • 1 (1-inch) piece ginger, peeled, chopped

  • 1 garlic clove, crushed

  • 1 cup coarsely chopped coriander

  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lime zest

  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • Sale kosher

  • 3 ears of corn, husked

  • 2 yellow peppers

  • 110g Sun Gold or cherry tomatoes

  • 2 endive, leaves separated, halved if large, or 1 large head of frisée, torn into bite-size pieces

  • 2 cups dandelion greens or rocket

  • Sale kosher

Pulse jalapeño, turmeric, ginger, garlic, coriander, oil, lime zest, and lime juice in a food processor until smooth with a few flecks of coriander. Transfer to a small bowl; season with salt.

Prepare a grill for high heat. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until charred and cooked through, 6–8 minutes. Let cool; cut kernels off cobs and place in a large bowl. (Or, cut kernels from cobs and char in a dry cast-iron skillet over medium-high, 8–10 minutes.)

Heat grill. Grill peppers on a rimmed baking sheet, turning occasionally, until blackened in spots and nearly cooked through, 12–18 minutes. Let cool; cut into 1" strips, retaining as much charred skin as possible; add to corn.

Grill tomatoes on same baking sheet, tossing once, until blackened in spots and starting to burst, about 5 minutes. Let cool. Add tomatoes, endive, and greens to corn; toss to combine. Drizzle dressing over and toss to coat; season with salt.
