my first colombian cooking experience...

So last week my friend decided that we should all learn how to make arepas. They are a type of tortilla that are originally from Colombia. I wasn't so sure of how good they were going to turn out considering that none of us had made them besides my friend Joanna but still we decided to try it out. All I have to say is that everybody should try this things. They are absolutely delicious! Here is the recipe:
Yellow or white cornstarch
Warm water about 2 cups for every cup of water
Toppinps you want to put on top of the arepas like cheese, butter,ham,sausage, eggs, etc.

Once you have the cornstarch, you mix it with the water and then you use the dough to make tortillas but a bit thicker. Then you place them on a skillet and let them cook on the top of the stove with a bit of butter so that they turn golden brown. hope you try them!
