Ingredients to do potato and cheese arepas:
1. The Rimer step to perform these rich economic arepas is to cook the potatoes. Place a saucepan with water, wait for it to break in boiling. Deposit the potatoes and cut in half.
Trick: If the potatoes are very large, cut them in two or four, to facilitate cooking.
2. When the potatoes are soft, drain the water in a strainer. Open the tap and let a little cold water run on them, just a little. Remove the shells. Take advantage that the potato is hot and crushed puree, it will be easier.
Trick: If you prefer, you can place the cheese in this step.
3. Prepare a puree with the potatoes. You can use some butter or oil, using the amounts indicated at the beginning. Order your work area, with the necessary ingredients and utensils.
4. Pica cheese in small squares and reserve.
Trick: You can prepare this recipe without cheese, it is equally tasty but it would no longer be a potato and cheese arepa.
5. Within a bowl, deposit all the ingredients and start kneading. This is the second most important step in this line, after puree. Knead until there is no grume and get a compact mass. I don use water in this recipe because the egg and oil compensate for the necessary humidity.
Trick: If the dough cracks you can use a little more oil or moisten your hands with water.
6. When you get a homogeneous mass that does not stick in your hands or cracks, it is ready. That easy, these economic arepas are made.
7. Create a large ball with the dough. Divide the ball into so many arepas of potatoes and cheese you want. In this case, it is enough for two large or three medium arepas.
Trick: Heat the pan while molding the arepas.
8. Now use your artist skills and sculpt an album, with an approximate thickness of more than 1 centimeter. The thickness depends on your taste, they can be thin or thick arepas. Coloca in the iron or pan each disk. Kitchen 5 minutes on each side. If you want them to be perfect, place them in the oven 1 minute more on each side or a little more.
Trick: If complete the cooking in the oven, previously preheats at 180º C.
9. Ready to enjoy this exquisiteness! Once again the intercultural wonder of potatoes and cheese leaves us amazed. Who can bore this flavor? On this occasion accompanied by the ancestral corn. An unstoppable trio! These arepas of delicious potatoes and cheese can eat them with … more cheese! Or also fish, chicken, sausages and … whatever you can think of!
