  1. In a skillet, heat the oil; add the corn, onion, and bell pepper, and cook over high heat until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.

  3. In a bowl, squeeze the hearts of palm to break into shards. 
  4. Add the purée, and the remaining sautéed vegetables to the bowl, along with the Old Bay seasonings, parsley, mayonnaise, mustard, and bread crumbs. 
  5. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and stir until evenly moistened. 
  6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and fill a pie plate with the panko. 
  7. Scoop scant ¼-cup mounds of the mixture into the panko, and roll to coat. 
  8. Form the mounds into 18 2-inch cakes, and transfer to the baking sheet. 
  9. Wipe the skillet, and then add a scant 1/8-inch of oil. 
  10. Fry half of the cakes over moderate heat, turning once, until crispy, about 2 minutes per side. 
  11. Wipe the skillet, add clean oil, and fry the remaining cakes. 
  12. Serve hot with a green salad.
