1. Place rice in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and rinse.
2. Dice avocado. Slice 1/2 the coriander and 1/2 the chives. Combine with yoghurt, 1/2 lime juice and 2 tbsp water. Blend using stick mixer or blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Slice remaining chives, coriander and dice tomatoes. Remove corn kernels from cobs. Combine with drained beans, 1 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Dice tofu. Combine 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp cumin and turmeric with 1 tbsp oil and coat tofu. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frypan over high heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, turning, until charred. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Divide rice between serving bowls. Top with tofu, salsa and dressing.
