For cooking the thicker arepas that you can eat like a sandwich:

1) Follow the original recipe here, or watch this video here.

2) Pinch off golf ball-sized bits of moist dough and roll into smooth balls. Roll them out with a rolling pin, or place the dough balls between two sheets of oiled wax paper and press down with a cutting board. This is easier as you can do several at a time.

3) Heat up oil or butter in a frying pan and grill each side till crispy and golden brown. This is how you get the lovely crust of the arepa.

4) Heat up the oven to 350F and finish cooking in the oven for about 10 minutes.

5) Remove from oven, slice, and serve with whatever filling you fancy. Anything! Even just a pat of butter. Other fillings might be scrambled egg, black beans and avocado, cream cheese, mozzarella and tomato.

This morning we had little snack-size arepas with spinach and mozzarella, tomato and gruyere, sweet potato and salsa verde, and chipotle jackfruit with salsa verde.

Currently usurping my love for huevos rancheros. Yummy, yummy, yummy.

Ingredients
Serves 2 hungry hippos
2 cups salsa (homemade or from a jar)
4 corn tortillas
olive oil
cotija cheese, queso fresco, or other grated cheese

Serve with refried beans, black beans, eggs, avocado, etc

  1. For homemade salsa, blitz tomatoes, fresh or dried chiles, water, salt and pepper in a blender. Use spicy chiles or chipotle for some heat or smokiness. Set aside.
  2. Cut the corn tortillas into bite size pieces and fry on med-high heat in olive oil till brown and crispy.
  3. Add in the jar of salsa or homemade salsa–enough to simmer the tortillas in but not cover them. Stir and add in salt and pepper if needed.
  4. When cooked, add handful of cheese and mix in. The chilaquiles should have a wonderful texture with some of the tortilla pieces being chewy and soft and some still a little crunchy.

Great with fried eggs and refried beans!
