Method

Heat/light the barbecue and spread the coals in an even layer. Mix the oil with the rosemary and salt and pepper in a bowl, then brush over the carrots, spring onions, vegan hot dogs and corn. Put the carrots on the grill and cook with the lid down for 10 minutes, turning from time to time. Add the corn cobs, onions and sausages, then cook for 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until everything is tender.
Using a sharp knife, slice the corn off the cobs, then mix in a bowl with the tomato chutney and the torn basil. Season to taste. Put the sub rolls on the barbecue to warm, then split down the middle and add some sweetcorn relish and mayo (if using).
Fill each roll with the hotdogs and grilled veg, then top with more sweetcorn relish and some extra basil leaves. Serve with gherkins, extra mayo and salad leaves.

Flavour boost: Add some sauerkraut, briefly tossing it in a very hot pan to warm and scorch.

Skip the BBQ: Heat a griddle pan, then cook the carrots for 10 minutes, turning. Add the spring onions, corn and hot dogs for 10-15 minutes until charred and tender.
