Venezuelan Arepa

Combine the water, the precooked corn flour, and a little bit of salt in a large mixing bowl.

Mix the ingredients by hand until no clumps remain in the resulting dough and it has a smooth but solid consistency.

Preheat a pan with oil over low heat.

Take a piece of dough and form a ball the size of the palm of your hand.

Carefully slap the ball side by side to make a disk neither too thick nor too thin.

Repeat the process with the remainder of the dough.

Put the arepas in the preheated pan and wait for it approximately 2 minutes and a half to flip it over.

When both sides are cooked, take them out of the pan.

Cut through the middle of the arepas with a butter knife, and brush them with butter.

Fill them with delicatessen to taste (ham, cheese, beans, mortadella, eggs, etc.)
