Arepitas de Maiz

Arepitas de Maiz is a delicious comfort snack that can also be served as hors d’oeuvres. It is very easy to prepare and can be made by even the least experienced cook.


Ingredients:
1 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup of oil (for frying)
2 tablespoons of milk
1 teaspoon of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 eggs
Directions:
  • Mix all ingredients except oil. 
  • In a pan heat the oil. 
  • Pour a tablespoon of the mixture at a time into the pan, making small "cakes". 
  • Fry the cakes until golden on both sides. 
  • Serve immediately.
Variations:
Slice 1-2 bananas (depending on size).  Add the slices into the mixture.   When spooning the mixture for frying, make sure to pick up 1 of the slices of the banana so that it fries with the arepita.
