Instructions
- Heat seitan, then add onions and saute for about 5 minutes
- Mix in corn and beans, then set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the garlic powder and salt to the corn flour and then add enough water to have it all hold together.
- Take a small handful of masa and flatten it out big enough to make a little bowl with it in your hand, then add some filling, pinch up the sides up and pat flat.
- Use a nonstick pan or a bit of oil and cook on each side for about 4 minutes or until it gets golden brown.

Notes
- Use warm water: (or even hot water) It helps hydrate the flour better than cold water for less cracking and more tender homemade pupusa dough.
- Use damp hands: The masa dough is sticky, so dipping your hands in water (or oil) as needed will make it easier to shape and flatten without sticking to your hands.
- Pinch off any excess: After filling and sealing the vegetarian pupusas, pinch away any excess dough and return it to the dough bowl, so they aren’t overly doughy.
- Cook untouched: Don’t move the pupusas as they cook, so they can form a nice crust and avoid sticking.
