Arepa Ingredients

Chorizo Ingredients

Method

Arepa Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Arepa Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the arepa flour, salt, and warm water. Mix well using your hands until a soft dough forms. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to hydrate.

  2. 2

    Shape the Arepas

    Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a disc about 1/2 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Arepas

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with oil. Cook the arepas for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until they develop a golden-brown crust. Once cooked, keep them warm in a towel.

Chorizo Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo sausage and cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through.

  2. 5

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the chorizo. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 6

    Add Garlic and Spices

    Stir in the minced garlic, cumin, paprika, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

  4. 7

    Finish with Cilantro

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Mix well.
