Feeling nostalgic: Corn Cakes

In March or April 2002 we visited Curacao and discovered corn cakes at a little inn...

We also had a great time with happy hour snacks such as ribs and some Dutch treats which were sold at that inn.... We ate so much, we could not have dinner most nights...

Also from that visit we expected that we would have a choice of corn cakes every time or in every hotel, however that was not the reality...

Too bad!!! They are missing out on a creating a wonderful authentic experience..... 

In this day and age,  that product can be exported (individually wrapped in green fig leaves, sold by the half dozen) sold at the airport, can be eaten at any time of the day...

Would be wonderful with fish... It may become part of my next Lenten meal plan for fast foods....

Following up on the need to have corn cakes, I made corn pies, some of which was delicious with "bhagee," fried pumpkin and curried potato. The combination added depth and satisfaction to a meal which would have been needing a dessert....
