PAN-FRIED CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Boil water and add corn for just two minutes. Allow the corn to cool just long enough to be able to handle it.Cut it off the cob and saute the cut corn in olive oil for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to let it burn. Meanwhile, dice up the rest of the veggies. Let the corn cool after sauteeing and then add to the vegetables with just another spash of olive oil. Add the rest of the ingredients to taste. It should be tangy, but not too sour. The honey should accent the taste and bring out the best of the lime. I add the ground red pepper last, the amount depends on the heat of the long hot pepper. Serve with chips - make sure you scoop up the juice it creates.
