Growing up in Colombia we had more arepas than bread and it is something that I really miss here in the Uk. Maize flour is available in more stores these days, I hope you hice these a try!
Here are the ingredients you will need:
- 320g white maize flour
- 30g light butter
- Pinch of salt
- Around 350ml warm water (add more is mix too dry)
- Reduced fat cheese chopped in cubes for the filling
Method:
- Mix the flour, butter, water and salt
- Divide the dough into small bite size balls, flatten and add some cheese in the middle then roll again to cover the cheese
- Sprinkle some olive oil and air fry for 15minutes at 170c
