Cathy's Mom's Corn Fritters

My mother obtained this recipe when she was on a Navy base in Germany in the 1940s. She is unsure of the date but this has been in our family since she obtained it. It is fabulous and easy.

Ingredients

 * ½ cup water
 * ½ cup canned corn drained

Directions

 * 1) Put the corn bread mix in a bowl and, using a fork to blend, gradually add the water.
