Arepas
Report
Arepas are a patty-like food made from ground corn flour and mixed with warm water. They're most popular in Colombia and Venezuela. I like them filled with cheese and served for breakfast with huevos pericos and avocado.

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (15g)
- 1 2/3 cup water 380ml, warm
- 250 grams masarepa flour
- 1 tablespoon butter at room temperature, unsalted
- 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese finely shredded
- 3 ounces mozzarella cheese sliced
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the salt and warm water until the salt dissolves. Add the masarepa flour and mix with a spoon until mostly combined. Then knead the dough until it comes together in a mass. Add in the softened butter and knead again. Lastly, mix in the shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Separate the dough into balls and form them into patties using your palms. It should be about 1/2-inch thick and a 3-inch diameter. Brush a cast iron skillet or non-stick skillet with a bit of butter or avocado oil and place over medium heat.
- When warm, add the arepas to the pan and cook on each side for about 4 to 5 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Remove from heat and slice open. Add slice of cheese to the inside and return to the skillet until cheese has melted.
