Mix the courgette, peppers and corn with the oil. With the lid down, grill over/on a medium heat (approx. 200°C) for approx. 10 mins., turning occasionally. Remove the vegetables from the grill, allow to cool slightly. Cut the courgette and peppers into pieces. Remove the corn kernels from the cobs using a knife. Add the warm vegetables to the bowl containing the dressing, mix. With the lid down, grill the steaks over/on a high heat (approx. 250°C) for approx. 1½ mins. on each side. Cover the meat and leave to rest for approx. 5 mins.
Summer salad
