• 1 large cob sweetcorn
• 1/4 cup plain flour
• 1 egg
• A little milk
• 2 large firm tomatoes

• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for shallow frying
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 8 cupped leaves iceberg lettuce, to serve shredded fresh basil leaves, to garnish

How to make sweetcorn cakes with grilled tomatoes

• Pull the husks and silk away from the corn, then hold the cob upright on a board and cut downwards with a heavy knife to strip off the kernels.
• Put the kernels in a pan of boiling water and cook for 3 minutes after the water has returned to the boil, then drain and rinse under the cold tap to cool quickly.
• Put the flour into a bowl and break the egg into a well in the middle.
• Start stirring with a fork, adding a little milk to make a soft dropping consistency.
• Stir in the drained corn and season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the grill.
• Halve the tomatoes horizontally and make two or three crisscross slashes across the cut side of each half.
• Rub in the crushed garlic and the oregano and season with salt and pepper.
• Trickle with oil and grill until lightly browned.
• While the tomatoes grill, heat some oil in a wide frying pan and drop a tablespoon of batter into the centre.
• Cook, one at a time, over a low heat and turn as soon as the top is set.
• Drain on kitchen paper and keep warm while cooking the remaining fritters.
• The mixture should make at least 8 sweetcorn cakes.
• For each serving, put 2 sweetcorn cakes on to lettuce leaves, garnish with basil and serve with a grilled tomato half.
• The dressing for this salad uses raw egg yolks. Be sure to use only the freshest eggs from a reputable supplier. Pregnant women, young children and the elderly are not advised to eat raw egg yolks. If this presents a problem, the dressing can be made without the egg yolks.
