Yield Serves 4 to 6 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

two 1/2-pound russet (baking) potatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1 1/2 cups fresh corn kernels including the pulp scraped from the cobs (cut from about 2 ears of corn)
4 scallions, chopped fine
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes, grate them coarse, and squeeze them with the bell pepper between several thicknesses of paper towels to remove any excess moisture. In a bowl toss together the potato and pepper mixture, the corn, the scallions, the cumin, the flour, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a non-stick skillet measuring 6 inches across the bottom heat 1/2 tablespoon of the butter over moderate heat until the foam subsides, add 3/4 cup of the corn mixture, tamping it down with a spatula, and cook the corn and potato cake for 6 minutes, or until the underside is golden and crisp, slide it onto a plate, and keep it warm, covered. Make 3 more corn and potato cakes in the same manner with the remaining batter and corn mixture. Spread 2 of the cakes with the sour cream, arrange the remaining cakes on the sour cream, and cut the corn and potato cakes into wedges.

These cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more milk or buttermilk next time.

These cakes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

These cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

These cakes are a great way to use up leftover corn and potatoes. They're also a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

These cakes were easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh corn from my garden and it really made a difference in the flavor. I also added a bit of chopped jalapeño for a little spice.

I'm not usually a fan of corn cakes, but these were really good! The potatoes added a nice heartiness and the corn gave them a sweet flavor. I'll definitely be making these again.
