This is a Venezuelan dish.

Let’s get the pork going. The players





Inject and into the fridge overnight.



Some black beans to soak.





Next morning rub and put the butt onto the Mak





No since wasting smoke or space. Put some spares on for my bud who helped me put 1319 together.







Beans on to cook. Add some pork and onion



Let’s make the Arepas. The players





Ready to fry



Get the Guac going



Porks ready to pull





Beans done. Guacs done. Lets fry the arepas



Time to plate



Enjoy!

Don, the key is the right corn flour. It must be a precooked flour. The only one I could find locally was
P.A.N. . Hre is the recipie I used. Turned out perfect.

2 3/4 cup warm water
2 1/2 cup p.a.n.
1 tsp salt
2 tbl melted butter

Mix salt and flour. Pour warm water into flour and then add butter. Mix let rest for 15 minutes. Divide into 12 pieces. Roll into balls. Between plastic wrap flatten into 3 1/2 inch rounds about 3/4 inch thick.
Fry in about 1/2 in of oil till golden brown. Drain and put on a rack and into a 200 degree oven for about 15 minutes. Split and fill with your choice of fillings.

Rick,
That is one good looking plate of food!!  I love your style, and your cooks.  We can always count on you to come up with something new or a variation of something old that is off the charts.

Does the new MAK act any different than the old MAK?
