Arepa Pancake

Arepas are like cornmeal pancakes just thicker dough. Traditionally, common in Colombia and Venezuela.


Ingredients

1 Cup of pre-cooked white cornmeal
3 Teaspoons of Sugar
1 Cup of Milk
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon of Mayo
1 Teaspoon of Honey
Cheese to taste (I used Provolone)
A dash of Salt

Whisk Cornmeal and Sugar together.

Add Milk.

Whisk.

Add Mayo, Egg and Honey.

Blend well.

Spread some butter on a pancake pan and Turn Heat to Medium-Low(level 4)

Pour only half the mix in the pan.

Close and let cook for 5-6 minutes. Turn pan over.

After another 5-6 minutes turn pan over again and check that both sides are golden brown. If one side doesn't look cooked enough leave it a bit longer, just keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't burn. Then place Arepa on a plate.

Add the rest of the mix into the pan. Repeating cooking process.

Meanwhile, take any cheese you'd like best.

With a bread knife, cut Arepa Pancake in half.

Add Cheese inside.

Enjoy!

You may add anything else you'd like. Cream Cheese, Ham, Turkey, or Veggies.
