Make a Chili Beet Corn Juice

Description

Have you ever tried making your own corn milk?

It is super easy to make in a cold press juicer and it provides a nutritious sweet base to mix in other ingredients. You don’t need to soak anything, you don’t need to strain anything either when using your Kuvings cold press juicer.

This recipe is spicy, sweet, lemony, and tangy.

It is best served cold from the fridge.

You can always use less chili and less lemon if you want to tone down the tangy chili kick.

I really enjoyed it!


Ingredients

  • 1 corn, kernels removed

  • 1 cup of filtered water

  • 1 beetroot

  • 2 lemons

  • 3 thyme sprigs

  • 2 green chili peppers

  • 1 apple, golden

Juicing Time: 6 mins

Juice Qty: 600ml

Serves: 3

Preparation

Corn

  • Remove the outer husk

  • Top and tail the corn cobs so they have a flat end on which to stand

  • Slide your knife down the cob to remove the kernels

Beetroot

  • Cut in half and then into quarters

  • Slice each half into thin slices to make it easier to press.

  • Juice with skin on

Lemon

  • Remove stickers and cut off any hard end points

  • Slice lemons into rounds with skin on to give more flavour and get more juice from each lemon.

Thyme

  • Pinch the top of the wooden stem and run your fingers down to remove the leaves and shoots from the woody stem

Chili

  • Cut off the stalk end

  • Cut in half lengthways and remove the seeds if you don’t want it too hot, otherwise leave them in

Apples

  • Remove the stems and remove any stickers

  • Juice apples whole with skin and seeds.

  • Cut in half or quarters if too big to fit into the wide chute.

Method

Make the corn milk first.

Close the cap on the juicer. Add all the corn kernels and then pour the water into the juicer and allow it to mix before opening the cap and releasing the juice.

Next, add the thyme sprigs and the chili together followed by the apple.

Juice the beetroot next adding about 1/4 of the slices at a time.

Finish making this juice recipe with the lemon slices.

 

Tip: when buying corn look for fresh organic cobs because most conventional corn is GMO.
