Directions
Step 1Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C) mark 7. In a large roasting tin, toss the corn cobs,

Roast for 30min, turning halfway, until
browned. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2Meanwhile, cook the noodles in a large
pan of salted boiling water according to
pack instructions, adding the edamame
for the final 3min. Drain, then rinse briefly
under cold running water to stop the
cooking. Drain again.
Step 3In a large bowl, whisk the dressing
ingredients with 2tbsp cold water
and some seasoning. Add the drained
noodles and edamame and toss to coat.
Step 4When cool enough to handle, stand
a corn cob upright on a board and use a
large sharp knife to shave off the kernels,
cutting as close to the core as possible.
Repeat with remaining corn cob.
Step 5Add corn, aubergine, tomatoes, carrots
and lime juice to the noodle bowl and
toss gently. Check seasoning and serve.
