Method

  1. Pre heat the oven to 200C / Gas Mark 6.

  5. For the corn on the cob, fill a large pot with enough water to cover the corn & bring to a boil.
  6. Drop the corn into the boiling water, cover and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 6 – 8 minutes until the kernels are tender.
  7. Once the corn is cooked, transfer to a dry frying pan and brown.
  8. Slice each Quorn fillet into 6 and serve with the slaw and corn.
