This grilled salad is addicting!
Ingredients
- Tahini
- Sweet corn2–3
- Romaine lettuce3
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Salt
- Cherry tomato10 oz
- Scallion2
- Parsley½ bunches
- Sumac1 tsp
- Aleppo pepper1 tsp
- Lemon½
Instructions
- Lightly oil the grill grates and heat the grill, or a large grill pan, to high.
- Make the tahini sauce first so its flavours can blend while you prepare the rest. If you want a looser, dressing-like consistency, add a splash of water and stir until you get the texture you like.
- When the grill is hot, place the corn on the grill and turn until nicely charred, about 10 minutes in total. Remove and set aside.
- Brush both sides of the romaine hearts with extra virgin olive oil. Grill them cut side down for 3 minutes, flip with tongs and grill for about 3 minutes more, until softened but still crisp at the core and charred on both sides. Arrange on a large serving platter and turn off the grill.
- Stand one ear of corn upright in a large bowl and slice down the cob to release the kernels into the bowl. Repeat with the remaining corn.
- Add the halved grape tomatoes, chopped green onions, chopped parsley, sumac and Aleppo pepper (if using), the lemon juice and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to the corn. Season with kosher salt and toss to combine.
- Spoon the corn and tomato salad over the grilled romaine, drizzle with a little tahini sauce, and serve straight away with the rest of the tahini sauce on the side.
