    A sweet masa pancake filled with cheese and topped with carnitas http://joyjoycreativeoutlet.blogspot.com/2010/06/arepas.html

    Ingredients

    • Masa
    • I went with ratio since it depends on how much you want to make.
    • 1 part to 1 part instant masa to water *This may vary on how dry or wet you want the masa.
    • 1 sugar to 4 parts masa *to make it a little sweet.
    • Corn (optional but it would be a great add if you have it, I wish I did)

    Directions

    1. Directions
    2. Mix the flour and sugar together. *Corn if you have it.
    3. Slowly add the water. I would add it in parts so you are able to judge if it needs more or less.
    4. Create little pancakes
    5. Grill it on a non-stick skillet on a medium heat. You could put a little butter but it is not really necessary.
    6. Once it starts to dry up a little, flip them over.
    7. Once cooked, let it cool a little.
    8. Make a small incision in the middle of the cake and insert the cheese so the heat from the arepas melts the cheese.
    9. Top how ever you would like.
