Provided by garciamoss

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup warm water
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1 cup pre-cooked white corn meal
1 tbsp butter
1 cup shredded mozarella cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the water, salt, corn meal, butter and cheese in a bowl large enough to knead the dough. 2. Knead until all ingredients are mixed well and the dough has a soft consistency. If the dough is too dry, add a little bit more water. If it's too moist, add more corn meal. 3. Start forming balls the size of a medium orange and place them between two sheets of plastic. Flatten it with a rolling pin to your desire thickness. 4. Cut the dough through the top plastic sheet with a cereal bowl, glass, cookie cutter, etc. Take off the plastic, the excess dough and now you have a perfectly shaped arepa. 5. Cover a griddle with spray or stick butter. Turn on the stove to medium high and when the griddle is hot enough, add the arepas. You can also use a pan. 6. Grill for 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
