CACHAPAS (VENEZUELAN CORN PANCAKES)
These sweet corn pancakes are a breakfast staple in Venezuela. You can have them with just butter, but they're amazing sandwiched with some soft, melty cheese between two of them. Think: elote meets breakfast. Cachapas are very delicate, so be sure to flatten the center of the pancake when you scoop the batter into the pan. You'll be on your way to a slightly charred, salty and sweet breakfast treat.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Add the crema, half of the corn, eggs, sugar and salt to a blender and blend until the mixture is evenly combined but still chunky. Add the arepa flour and the remaining corn, then blend until a thick, even batter forms with pieces of corn still visible. Let the batter sit a couple of minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium heat until warm and spray generously with cooking spray. Add two 1/4-cup scoops of the batter, spacing them apart, to form 2 pancakes. Smooth each out with the back of your measuring cup to form a 5-inch-wide pancake, making sure the center is thin and flat -- the center takes longer to cook and if mounded will make the pancake much harder to flip. Cook until the bottoms are dark brown, almost black, about 5 minutes. While the pancakes cook, shred or slice your cheese, if necessary.
- Flip the pancakes and top one of them with a quarter of the cheese. Cook until the cheese melts, about 3 minutes, then top the cheese with the second pancake. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
- Make more cachapas with the remaining batter and cheese, wiping out the previous oil and spraying the skillet or griddle generously with cooking spray for each batch. Once all of the cachapas are filled with cheese, top each with a half tablespoon of butter and serve with crema on the side, for dipping.

20 AUTHENTIC VENEZUELAN RECIPES - INSANELY GOOD

5/5 (5)Published 2021-04-23Category Recipes
- Venezuelan Arepas. It’s not a true trip to Venezuela without classic arepas. These corn cakes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and filled with all things delicious.
- Cachapas (Venezuelan Corn Pancakes) Cachapas are sweet pancakes made from fresh corn batter loaded with corn kernels. Just like American pancakes, cachapas may be topped with butter, cheese, and a variety of jams and spreads.
- Venezuelan Black Beans. Beans are another staple in Venezuelan cuisine. It’s a common side dish to many entrees, including the country’s national dish, the pabellon criollo (more on this later).
- Venezuelan Cheese Sticks (Tequenos) Tequenos are just like mozzarella sticks, only 10 times better. This popular Venezuelan finger food involves a stick of queso blanco covered in dough and baked or fried to perfection.
- Venezuelan Chicha (Rice and Milk Drink) Time for a refreshment! What better way is there to cool you down on a hot summer day than with a glass of cold drink?
- Pabellon Criollo (Venezuelan Meat, Rice, and Beans) I’ve mentioned pabellon criollo in passing, and now it’s time to discuss what this dish is all about.
- Venezuelan Chicken Salad. Venezuelan chicken salad isn’t your typical leafy salad. In fact, it doesn’t contain leafy greens at all. Instead, you get a mix of shredded chicken and mashed avocados.
- Venezuelan Guasacaca (Avocado Sauce) Guasacaca is a creamy sauce made of mashed avocados. Sounds familiar? Yup, the guasacaca is the Venezuelan version of guacamole!
- Venezuelan Chicken Pot Pie. Chicken pot pie is a delicious comfort food sure to turn a frown upside down. It’s called polvorosa de pollo in Venezuela, and I must admit, their version is better.
- Venezuelan Pasticho. It’s Venezuela’s lasagna, and it’s extraordinarily amazing. The layers of al dente lasagna noodles and bolognese sauce are already amazing, but the pasticho has more to offer.
