Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Make the Arepa Dough

    In a large bowl, combine the corn flour, salt, and water. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Let it rest for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Shape the Arepas

    Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a round disk about 1/2 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Arepas

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little butter or oil. Cook the arepas for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Chorizo

    While the arepas are cooking, remove the chorizo from its casing and cook it in a separate skillet until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Arepa

    Once the arepas are cooked, slice them open like a pocket. Fill each arepa with cooked chorizo and sprinkle with fresh cheese.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm and enjoy your Arepa con Queso y Chorizo!
