CORNY POTATO PANCAKES image

Don't know if anyone else does this, but the idea came to me out of the blue, as a result of having potato pancakes and some leftover corn. I thought, why not combine the two for a new taste treat? So here it is--very simple. Photo source: thecheapglut.wordpress.com justapinch.com
