Preparation

Step 1

Pour water, salt and sugar in a bowl. Slowly mix P.A.N. Pre-cooked White Corn Meal, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Let the dough rest for 2 minutes. Add both types of cheese and knead for 2 more minutes.
Divide dough into 10 equal portions, form balls and shape discs about 4-5 inches wide.
Cook on a budare (skillet), grill or pan for 5 minutes on both sides until golden brown. As an alternate option, you can also deep-fry the arepas.
