preparation

Corn salsa

1. Combine the corn kernels, diced tomatoes and the rest of the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate the salsa for at least 15 min. Season to taste.

4. Remove the skin and pits from the avocado and mash it with lime juice.

5. Place a spoonful of mashed avocado on each toasted bottom bun.

6. Layer lettuce, cilantro leaves and a little salsa on top, then top with the burger patty and the top bun.

7. Serve immediately with the rest of the corn salsa.
