We'll have another.
So I just showed my grandma the photo without telling her what this was and she thought this was a Mexican tortilla, which was also my initial thought. And given the way the ingredients were used this looks far more like a tortilla. I don't want to preach about the purity of arepas, but I feel like the flavor profile and cooking method is so far off that to call this an arepa would be a disservice to the meal.
My friend and I made a dinner night out of making these arepas, and let me tell you, they were so amazing, balanced, and satisfying! The dough needs more water than what the recipe states, even when using white corn flour. The arepas will crack if there is not enough hydration so be careful with that! I also found myself wanting a salsa to top the hearty dish off with. Overall, a great recipe that didn't make me feel heavy, break the bank, or wear me out.
