Created by: Howcan Team

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of pre-cooked white cornmeal
  • 1 1/2 cups of warm water
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced
  • 1 cup of salsa
  • 4 eggs

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of pre-cooked white cornmeal with 1 1/2 cups of warm water and 1 teaspoon of salt to form a dough.
  • Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Cook the arepas for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the remaining arepas.

Latin American

The history of Avocado and Salsa Arepas with a fried egg on top can be traced back to the vibrant culinary traditions of Venezuela and Colombia. Arepas, a staple in both countries, are savory corn cakes that are often split and filled with various ingredients. The addition of creamy avocado and zesty salsa adds a modern twist to this classic dish, while the fried egg on top provides a rich and indulgent touch. In recent years, this dish has gained popularity in trendy brunch spots and food trucks across the United States, where chefs have put their own unique spin on the traditional recipe. The combination of flavors and textures in Avocado and Salsa Arepas with a fried egg on top has made it a favorite among food enthusiasts looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal. For the best version of this dish, look for restaurants that use fresh, ripe avocados and house-made salsa to ensure a burst of flavor in every bite. The key to getting this dish right lies in the quality of the arepas - they should be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, providing the perfect base for the creamy avocado, zesty salsa, and runny egg yolk. While the classic recipe calls for a fried egg on top, some variations of this dish may feature poached or scrambled eggs for a different twist. Ultimately, the beauty of Avocado and Salsa Arepas with a fried egg on top lies in its versatility, allowing for endless creativity and personalization in the kitchen.
