MASA PANCAKES
I love the floral notes that fresh masa adds to these rich corn pancakes. You can also make them with masa harina for breakfast or brunch.

Steps:
- If using masa harina, combine in a medium bowl with ½ cup hot water and, using a rubber bowl scraper, stir and mash together until no dry spots remain. Cover with a plate or plastic wrap and let cool, about 30 minutes.
- If using fresh masa, crumble into a medium bowl.
- Melt 5 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour in buttermilk and remove from heat. Set aside.
- Whisk flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl to combine.
- Add eggs and sugar to masa and whisk until only a few lumps remain. Add half of buttermilk mixture and whisk until homogeneous. Add remaining buttermilk and whisk again to combine. Add to bowl with dry ingredients and mix until no dry streaks remain.
- Heat a large griddle or 2 cast-iron or nonstick skillets over medium; brush with butter. Working in batches, scoop ¼-cupfuls of batter onto griddle and cook until bubbles form on the surface and undersides are golden brown, about 3 minutes. If undersides are browning too quickly, reduce heat to low. Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other sides, about 2 minutes. Transfer pancakes to individual plates or a platter. Serve with butter and maple syrup. Do ahead: Masa harina dough can be made 3 day ahead. Once cool enough to handle, wrap tightly in plastic and chill.
HOT AND SPICY CHOLULA SEA BASS CEVICHE WITH ROASTED PEPPERS, GRILLED MASA CAKES, ROASTED CORN, AND CITRUS MARINADE
Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the sea bass, lime juice, lemon juice, orange juice, and onion. Mix all of these ingredients together and let marinate for 4 hours, covered, in the refrigerator.
- Preheat a grill.
- Once the fish has marinated, add the cilantro, roasted peppers, corn, and season with salt and pepper.
- To make the masa cakes, combine the masa flour, eggs, and add a tablespoon of water at a time and form a paste. Make sure the paste is firm and not too watery. Form small pancake shapes and grill on each side for approximately 2 minutes.
- To serve, place the masa cakes on the plate and top with the sea bass ceviche. Drizzle the top with the hot pepper sauce for added heat.
MASA CAKES AND EGGS
I got this from Food Network Magazine and it instantly became a favorite. The portion size (1 masa cake with 1 poached egg) looks small, but my boyfriend and I are both hearty eaters and neither of us can finish two. I recommend one with a couple strips of bacon and a slice of cantaloupe for the perfect breakfast!

Steps:
- Warm milk with butter over low heat, just until butter melts. Do not bring to a boil. Combine masa harina, sugar, salt, and cheese in a bowl. Stir in milk mixture to make a soft dough. Shape the dough into 4 portions (about 1/4 c each), and flatten slightly to make a disc shape.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat, and fry the masa cakes until crisp and golden (about 3 1/2 minutes per side). Remove and drain. Keep warm while you make the eggs.
- I highly recommend a microwave egg poacher, as it makes the eggs the perfect size and shape. But if you don't have one of those, you can poach the eggs as follows:.
- Bring a deep pan of water to a simmer (don't boil, as it will cause the eggs to disintegrate). Add 1 T white vinegar to help the eggs hold their shape.
- Break the egg into a small cup or bowl. Stir the simmering water to create a gentle whirlpool, then quickly slide the egg into the water (this helps the egg keep its shape. Poach the eggs for 3 1/2 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- To serve, place a masa cake on plate and top with egg. Add salsa to taste (we like La Victoria's Cilantro Salsa the best for this dish). Then sprinkle with extra feta and chopped avocado.
- Enjoy!

DAVID CHANG'S PANKO-BREADED PORK CHOPS W/ MASA CAKES AND REDEYE
From Mark Bittman's PBS show, "The Best Recipes In The World". Fusion food YUM! Anyway, this is a fancy, fun, very man-friendly dish. It's a little different but hey, for the adventurous it's awesome. Here's what Bittman had to say: "Who better to spread the gospel of pork than David Chang of New York's Momofuku? He adds pork to almost every one of his vegetarian-unfriendly dishes, because, as he'll tell you, it just makes things taste better. This dish is an enormously successful example of fusion cuisine-essentially, pork katsu with a Southern twist. David's redeye gravy, however, is not made like the kind you'd find in Southern diners. Instead of combining country-ham drippings with hot coffee, he makes what amounts to a mayonnaise spiked with instant granules." Prep and cook time is 45 minutes; enjoyment lasts forever.

Steps:
- With a fork or whisk, mix together 3 of the eggs and the flour to form a smooth batter.
- Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper. Put at least 2 inches of oil in a large, deep nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot-a pinch of flour will sizzle-begin to prepare the pork: dip a piece in the egg batter, then in the breadcrumbs-the more of this coating that adheres, the better. Put the piece of pork in the pan and repeat until done; depending on how many chops you're cooking or how large your skillet is, you may have to cook in batches, since crowding the pan will lower the oil's temperature and make for soggy chops. (Drain cooked pieces on a paper towel, then transfer them to a low oven until you're finished cooking.) Adjust the heat so the meat cooks rapidly but the coating does not burn. Turn each chop as the first side becomes deep golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Cook about the same amount of time on the second side.
- When the pork is almost done, bring about an inch of water to a boil in a deep, large skillet, add one teaspoon of salt and the vinegar, and lower the heat to the point where it barely bubbles. One at a time, break the 6 remaining eggs into a shallow bowl and slip them into the water. At this point, cover the skillet or begin to spoon the water over the tops of the eggs. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes, until the whites are barely set and the yolks have begun to film over. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- To make the gravy, combine 2 of the barely poached eggs, instant coffee grounds, sherry vinegar, and soy sauce in a small nonreactive bowl. Use an immersion blender to beat the ingredients until smooth, no more than 2 minutes. (You may also use a regular blender.).
- By hand, mix together the masa flour, water, lard, salt, and sugar in a medium-sized bowl just until the mixture is smooth. Form the dough into golf ball-sized spheres, then press each one into a ¼-inch thick disc. Grease your griddle or pan with a teaspoon of oil and, when the oil shimmers, add the masa cakes. Cook, working in batches, until they are light golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
- Slice the pork and divide it among 4 plates. Divide the masa cakes and poached eggs among the plates, garnish with scallions, and serve with redeye gravy.

- Place the corn flour, salt, butter, and cheese in a bowl, and stir to mix well. Once these ingredients are completely mixed, add the chopped cilantro.
- Slowly add the warm water and knead to form a soft dough, it will feel a little sticky. The total kneading time will be about 4-5 minutes. Divide the dough into 8 small balls.
- Heat the griddle over a medium heat, and, using a paper napkin, dab the surface with a little oil. These little patties sometimes tend to stick to the griddle.
- To form the patties/bocoles, place each ball of dough between two pieces of plastic, place on your tortilla maker, and gently press down to form a circle of 2-½ inches in diameter and about 1/3-in thick.
