This is a refreshing salad, better known by its cheeky name \'Solterito Arequipeño\' (unmarried person from Arequipa in Peru)

Ingredients
(Serves 4 - 6 people)
1 ripe Hass avocado
1 large carrot, peeled and cubed
300g feta cheese
500g broad beans
2 red onions
2 Choclo Peruvian giant kernel corn (or sweet corn cob)
1 aji amarillo chilli (or mild red chilli), finely chopped
150g black olives Juice of 2 limes
Pinch of salt and pepper
1 tsp olive oil
3 sprigs of parsley, finely chopped

Method
1. Boil the corn for 10 minutes then add the broad beans and carrot and boil for a further 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and when the cobs have cooled slightly take the kernels off the corn by slicing downwards with a sharp knife.
2. Chop the onions, avocado and feta cheese into cubes and slice the olives into round strips.
3. In a separate small bowl mix the olive oil, lime juice and salt and pepper and add the finely chopped chilli and parsley.

5. Chill for 10 minutes and serve.
