Recipe Description

Deliciously stuffed arepas with a spicy black bean filling, enriched with flavors of cumin and cilantro, perfect for a hearty meal or a savory snack.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups pre-cooked white cornmeal
  • 2 1/4 cups warm water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 cup cooked black beans
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced

Steps:

  1. In a large bowl, mix cornmeal, water, and salt to form a dough. Let it rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and shape each into a ball, then flatten to form thick discs.
  3. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat, and cook arepas until golden, about 5-6 minutes on each side.
  4. For the filling, sauté onions and garlic until soft, add black beans, cumin, and jalapeno, cooking until heated through.
  5. Split arepas in half and fill with the black bean mixture, top with cilantro before serving.
