Method
step 1
Heat a griddle or large frying pan over a high heat. If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cob. Toss the corn with a little of the olive oil, the smoked paprika, chilli and a pinch of salt. Tip into the pan and cook for 3-4 mins until lightly charred and beginning to pop. Stir the lime zest, juice and coriander through the charred corn and set aside.
step 2
Add a splash more oil to the pan. Cook the halloumi slices for 2-3 mins each side until golden and crisp. Swirl the chipotle paste into the yogurt.
step 3
Warm the tortillas in a dry pan or microwave. Spread a little chipotle yogurt over each tortilla, then fill with the halloumi, avocado and spoonfuls of sweetcorn salsa. Serve with the lime wedges on the side for squeezing over.
