Preparation steps
For the vegetable skewers, soak wooden skewers in water. Shuck corn and cut the cobs into about 2 cm (approximately 3/4-inch) thick pieces. Blanch pieces in boiling water for about 10 minutes. Then drain, rinse in cold water and drain.
Rinse eggplant, trim and cut into 2 cm (approximately 3/4-inch) thick pieces. Rinse cherry tomatoes.
Thread corn, eggplant and cherry tomatoes alternately on skewers. Peel garlic, squeeze through a garlic press and combine with lemon juice, tomato paste, olive oil and pepper to taste.
Place the skewers in a shallow dish and brush with the marinade. Cover and marinate about 1 hour.
For the potatoes, cut the potatoes lengthwise into slices, season with salt and pepper and mix with oil.
Place the skewers and potatoes on oiled aluminum foil and cook on a preheated grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with the marinade. Season the skewers with salt and pepper, sprinkle with rosemary and serve immediately with the potato wedges.
