Arepas
- 2 cups fresh corn kernels OR
- 2 cups cooked cream-style corn
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup milk or half and half
- 3/4 to 1 cups masa harina
- 1/2 teaspoon Lawry's seasoned salt (see note)
- Neutral oil, for frying
- In a mixing bowl, combine corn, egg, milk and seasoned salt. Stir to mix.
- Add enough masa harina to make a thick dough. Think sugar cookie dough in consistency.
- Heat 3 tablespoons or so of oil in a skillet over medium high heat.
- Scoop up about 1/4 cup of arepa mixture, make a ball, and flatten in your palms to about 1/4 inch thick.
- Fry on both sides until golden, and drain on paper towels on a rack.
- NOTE: Lawry's Seasoned Salt is my go-to seasoning. It has salt, celery powder and paprika that I can identify, and I'm not certain what else. If you prefer to come up with your own seasoning blends, season these however best works for you!
