- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt

Directions
Step 1
Chop the baby corn into small, kernel-like pieces to mimic the look and texture of fresh corn. Set aside.
Step 2
Dice the red bell pepper into small cubes, similar in size to the chopped baby corn.
Step 3
Finely chop the jalapeño pepper, removing the seeds for less heat, or keeping them in if you prefer a spicier salsa.
Step 4
Dice the red onion finely. Combine with the chopped baby corn, red bell pepper, and jalapeño in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 5
Roughly chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl.
Step 6
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the salsa mixture. Ensure all small seeds are removed.
Step 7
Add the sea salt and black pepper, then drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the mixture.
Step 8
Toss all the ingredients together gently until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper to suit your preference.
Step 9
Serve immediately as a refreshing side dish or refrigerate for up to 24 hours to enhance the flavors. Enjoy your Keto Fresh Corn Salsa with grilled meats, over salads, or on top of low-carb tortillas.
