Arepa

Side · world favourite.

Ingredients

• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 cup Corn Flour
• 1 1/4 cup Warm Water

Method

1. Mix together — Put the corn flour in a bowl and add the salted water little by little, mixing with the flour until all the water has been used and the flour has become a dough.
2. Roll out — Let it rest for five minutes. Now, shape the dough into round rolls about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick.
3. Continue cooking — In a lightly greased skillet, slowly cook the arepas until a crust forms on each side.
4. Bake — Now place them into a casserole and bake in the oven at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, until the arepas sound hollow when tapped.
5. Continue cooking — To enhance taste: instead of using just water, use chicken or beef broth.
