Ingredients
- 2 cups of Maseca
- 1 teaspoon marinade without pepper
- 3 cups of hot water
- 16 ounces of Ducal Red Beans
- 8 ounces of grated white cheese
- To accompany: coleslaw or curtido
Preparation
- In a container combine the Maseca, Adobo and 2 cups of water. Mix until water is absorbed. Using your hands, knead the Maseca mixture, adding any remaining water, a little at a time, until a moist dough forms (you may not need all the water).
- Using your hands, take 3 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten into a round disk measuring 5" and 1/8" thick; Repeat with the rest of the dough until you make 16 disks, covering the dough and disks with a damp cloth as you work. Spread 1 tablespoon beans or cheese evenly over first disk. Season with the Adobo. Cover with another disc; Fold bottom edge over top to seal. As a variant, you can combine the beans and cheese in the same pupusa. Repeat using the remaining dough discs, beans and cheese until you make 8 pupusas.
- In a hot, greased grill or medium skillet, grill the pupusas until golden brown on both sides, turning once, for 6-8 minutes.
- Serve hot with coleslaw on the side.
