Ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups masa harina corn flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups warm water
- 3/4 cup shredded quesillo or mozzarella cheese
- Vegetable oil for cooking
- curtido pickled cabbage slaw for serving
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the masa harina and salt. Gradually stir in warm water until a dough forms. Knead the dough for several minutes until it becomes smooth and pliable.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Cover with a damp cloth.
- Flatten each dough ball into a 1/4-inch-thick patty. Place about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese in the center. Fold the edges over the filling, seal, and flatten into thick discs.
- Heat a light coating of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook the pupusas for 2-4 minutes per side, until golden brown. Serve warm with curtido.
