Method
In bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and pepper.
In separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg yolk and butter; pour over flour mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and corn. Stir just until flour is incorporated.
Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat; brush lightly with oil. Using tablespoonful (15 mL) batter for each corn cake and brushing skillet with oil as necessary, cook corn cakes for about 1 minute per side or until golden. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours; let come to room temperature before garnishing.)
Garnish: Cut salmon into 2- x 1/2-inch (5 x 1 cm) strips. Spoon scant teaspoonful (5 mL) sour cream onto centre of each corn cake. Top with salmon rosette and dill sprig.
