As I currently have some time, I was surfing on the internet a few days ago. On the lookout for fresh, stirring thoughts, inspirational meals that We have never tested before, to amaze my loved ones with. Hunting for quite some time unfortunately couldn’t find any interesting things. Just before I thought to give up on it, I ran across this yummy and simple treat simply by chance at Suncakemom. The dessert looked so tempting

on its photos, that required instant actions.

It had been not so difficult to imagine how it’s made, how it tastes and how much my husband is going to want it. Mind you, it is quite simple to delight the man in terms of desserts. Yes, I am a blessed one. Or perhaps he is.Anyways, I went to the site and simply followed the precise instuctions which were combined with nice photographs of the method. It really makes life rather easy. I could suppose it is a bit of a hassle to take pics in the middle of cooking in the kitchen because you usually have gross hands thus i highly appreciate the commitment she placed in for making this post .

Having said that I’m empowered to present my own dishes in a similar fashion. Appreciate your the thought.

I had been fine tuning the initial formula create it for the taste of my family. I can tell you it turned out an awesome success. They prized the flavor, the thickness and enjoyed getting a delicacy like this during a hectic workweek. They quite simply asked for even more, many more. Hence the next time I am not going to make the same mistake. I am going to double the volume .

Many Thanks to suncakemom for the tasty How To Make Arepas.

Mix the ingredients in a bowl by hand until the dough comes together into a ball. If it sticks to the hand or the side of the bowl, add more flour to it. If it seems dry and falling apart, add more water to it.

Add oil to the dough ball and knead it further.

Flatten the dough into a circle shape.

Divide the dough into eight equal parts.

Make balls from the eight dough parts.

Flatten the dough balls into ½ ” / 1.5cm tall circles. This would yield about 4″/10cm wide circles.

With an oily hand rub together the cracks on the side of the dough if present.

Pour oil into a pan and fry one side of the circle shaped dough on medium heat. It takes about 5 minutes to achieve a golden brown color and hard outer layer.

Flip over the dough and fry the other side as well.

When both sides are done place them into the oven for 10 – 15 minutes on 350°F / 180°C.

Fill with any filling of choice.
