Fresh Corn with Cherry Tomatoes
About two cups of fresh corn cut off the cob
¼ cup (4 tablespoons) minced shallots or onion
About a pint of cherry tomatoes, whole
A few tablespoons of cooking oil
Salt and herbs to taste (Bittman’s recipe calls for tarragon; I used herbs de Provence; use your favorite.)
Sauté shallots or onions in oil about a minute
Add corn and tomatoes and continue to sauté over fairly high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring or shaking frequently
Season and serve
Variations:
I haven’t tried this yet, but grill corn on the cob first and then cut corn off the cob and proceed as above.
Consider adding small amount of red pepper flakes or minced chiles
