Arepa de Huevo (Arepa Stuffed with Egg)

In a medium bowl, mix the masarepa, salt and sugar with a fork. Add the warm water and mix with a spoon. Then using your hands form dough. Let it sit for 5 minutes.

Divide the mixture into 4  portions and form each portion into a ball by rolling between the palms of your hands. Reserve a small piece of dough and set aside.

Place a piece of parchment paper or plastic in the kitchen counter, place the ball of dough and cover with another piece of paper or plastic and with a flat pot cover or a cutting board flatten into rounds, about ¼ inch thick.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy pot to 350° F. Add the arepas in the heated oil one by one, fry for 3 minutes turning over once, about half way trough.

Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the arepas from the oil and drain on paper towels.  When the arepa is cold enough to handle, with a sharp knife make an opening about 1 ½ inches long on the side of the arepa, cutting to the middle of the arepa without slicing all the way through, just like making a pocket.

Crack 1 egg into a small ramekin and carefully pour the egg into the arepa pocket. Take the small piece of the dough you had aside and close the arepa. Add the arepa filled with egg to the hot oil and fry one more time for about 4 minutes, to cook the egg.

With a slotted spoon, remove the arepas from the oil and drain on paper towel and serve immediately.

Arepa de Huevo is a typical dish from the Caribbean region of Colombia where they are sold on street stalls. These arepas are served in Colombian homes for breakfast, but I remember my family making them for dinner so you can serve them at any time of the day.

Boil the potatoes (with the skin) until they are tender.

While the potatoes are cooking, heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat to make a refrito.

Drain the potatoes and peel them.

In a large salad bowl, mash the potatoes with a potato masher, then add the onion refrito.

Season with salt.

Cover the dough and let stand at room temperature for 1h30.

Mix the dough well.

Form small balls the size of a golf ball.

Make a hole in the middle of each ball and fill it with grated cheese.

After stuffing them with cheese, shape each ball into thick patties and let them rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Using a brush, lightly grease a hot griddle or pan and cook the patties on both sides until they are golden brown, taking care to turn gently as they can be fragile.

Serve hot with fried egg, peanut sauce, curtido, avocado slices and hot sauce.

Harina P.A.N ((pre-cooked white maize meal))

corn, canola or vegetable oil

Breakfast is the first meal of a day, most often eaten in the early morning before undertaking the day's work. Some believe it to be the most important meal of the day, however there is little scientific evidence to back up this point. Among English speakers, "breakfast" can be used to refer to this meal...

breakfast

Breakfast is our favorite meal of the day and is so important to start our day off at our best. From my own experience, I know that breakfast is one of the most challenging meals when we take eggs out of the equation. So rise and shine these eggless breakfast recipes, such as Eggless Pancakes, Waffles, Crepes, or the BEST Eggless French Toast.

My personal favorites are Easy Eggless Blueberry Pancakes and Easy Eggless Cinnamon Rolls.

Wash your hands

In a medium bowl add water and salt. Mix until the salt is dissolved.

Slowly add the harina P.A.N. Mix with your hands, making circular movements and breaking with your finger the lumps that may form. Let rest 5 minutes to thicken.

Preheat a non-stick 11-inch square griddle over medium heat. If you don&#039;t have a griddle you can use a skillet instead.

After 5 minutes add the oil to the dough and work it in with your hands for 2 minutes. The dough should be firm enough holds its shape without cracking when molded. If it is too soft add a little more of harina P.A.N; if too hard add a little more water.
