Tomatoes with Corn and Basil Filling image

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Yield Serves 6 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tomatoes (about 3 pounds)
3 ears of corn, shucked
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves plus 6 basil sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Cut 1/2 inch from the stem end of each tomato and with a melon-ball cutter scoop out and discard the seeds and pulp, leaving a 1/2-inch shell.

In a large saucepan combine the corn with enough salted cold water to cover it by 1 inch, bring the water to boil, and boil the corn for 5 minutes. Drain the corn, let it cool until it can be handled, and, working over a bowl, cut the kernels from the cobs with a serrated knife.
