HOW I MAKE CHEESY AREPAS | Arepas Con Queso
Simple Recipes / Sally Vargas
When Mirabel said in the latest animated film Encanto Disney that her mother could cure anything with an arepa I really believed her. Arepas are after all the backbone of Colombian gastronomy. They are the first thing I reach for when I am homesick. Most Colombians grew up eating arepas almost every day.
Arepas can be grilled or fried stuffed or simply served savory or sweet large or small and every region of the country seems to have a specialty. Arepas con queso—with cheese—are perhaps one of the most basic but delicious versions. They’re a blank canvas for adding toppings and fillings though they’re delicious with just a little butter on top.
