• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for frying
• 2 1/2 cups fresh corn kernels (cut from 4 ears of corn)

4. In a bowl, squeeze the hearts of palm to break them into shards.
5. Add the puree and the remaining sauteed vegetables to the bowl, along with the Old Bay, parsley, mayonnaise, mustard and the 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs.
6. Season lightly with salt and pepper and stir until evenly moistened.
7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fill a pie plate with bread crumbs.
8. Scoop scant 1/4-cup mounds of the hearts of palm mixture into the bread crumbs and roll to coat.
