Steps:

  • Mix water, corn meal, mozzarella cheese, butter, and salt together in a large bowl. Knead until mixed well and the dough has a soft consistency. Form balls the size of a medium orange and place them between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Flatten with a rolling pin to your desired thickness.
  • Cut the dough into circles using a cereal bowl or drinking glass, lip-down, through the plastic wrap. Remove the plastic wrap and remove excess dough.
  • Coat a griddle with cooking spray and heat to medium-high. Add arepas and grill until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C). Set out a baking sheet and line with parchment paper. And to a large mixing bowl, add water and salt. Stir to combine and dissolve salt.
  • A little at a time, add the areparina and stir with a whisk or your hands (our preferred method). You may work your way all the way up to two cups, although we typically have 1-2 Tbsp leftover. You’re looking for a dough that doesn’t easily stick to your hands, is moldable and moist, and can be rolled into a ball. Once you have that consistency, cover with a towel for 5 minutes. We did mix both white and yellow areparina as inspired by Teote (optional).
  • Uncover, grab a large handful of dough, and roll into a ball (as the recipe is written, our batch made 6 large arepas, but it could also make 8-10 smaller arepas).
  • Carefully press the ball between the palms of your hands to form into a roughly 1/2-inch thick disc (for thinner, crispier arepas, press closer to 1/4 inch). If it cracks a lot on the sides, your dough may need 1-2 (15-30 ml) more water. A little cracking is OK - just use your hands to close the cracks by gently patting along the edges (see photo).

  • Prepare the filling. To make the arepa filling, squeeze the avocado with your hands to mash it but leave some bits and pieces. Then, blend all the filling ingredients together to combine.
  • Mix the salt and dry precooked cornmeal. Mix the salt into the dry precooked cornmeal. Use your hands here! There is no a set rule for how to make the masa—some people add the water first, but I add the salt.
  • Add warm water. Slowly, add 2-1/2 cups of warm water to the cornmeal while mixing with your hand. In order to prevent lumps, keep mixing for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Knead the dough. Once you have a dough, knead for about 3 to 4 more minutes.
  • Form a smooth ball. Shape the dough into a ball. Cover it with plastic wrap, cheesecloth or a clean, damp towel and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Form smaller dough balls. Pull off pieces of the larger ball to form smaller balls. For each arepa, you want a ball that weighs 5 to 5-1/2 ounces.
  • Flatten the arepa. In order to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands, use the reserved water to wet your hands lightly. Flatten the ball of masa between the palms of your hands until it reaches the desired thickness of 1/2 to 3/4 inches all around.
  • Grill the arepas. Place the arepas on a preheated and lightly greased grill pan on medium heat. Cook for about 7 to 8 minutes on each side, turning the arepa a few times carefully with a spatula to cook evenly until they are golden brown and puffy.
  • Assemble the arepa. As soon as the arepas are cooked, stuff them and eat them! It’s when they are at their best—crispy, warm and delicious. To start, place the arepa on a clean kitchen towel.
