When cool enough to handle, gently peel off skin with your fingers. Set tomatoes aside.
• Place the corn in the same boiling water, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. When cool enough to handle, stand one ear of corn on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut down the length of the ear, removing the corn kernels. Repeat with remaining ears of corn. Set corn kernels aside.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the okra and tomatoes to a large serving platter. Discard liquid.
