Corn And Cheese Griddle Cakes Arepas Recipes

Steps:

• Put the cornmeal and salt in a food processor and process until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the cheese and butter.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until almost boiling. Gradually stir enough of the milk into the cornmeal mixture to make a very thick batter. Stir in the corn.
• Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and set over medium heat. Drop half of the cornmeal mixture, 1 heaping tablespoon at a time, in 6 mounds in the skillet. Flatten slightly and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Spray the griddle cakes with nonstick spray and turn. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes, transferring them to a platter when they are done; keep warm. Repeat with the remaining cornmeal mixture to make a total of 12 griddle cakes. Serve with Pico de Gallo, if using.

Steps:

• Finely grind cornmeal in blender, 1/4 cup at a time. Transfer to large bowl. Mix in cheese, 2 tablespoons butter and salt. Add enough boiling water to mixture to make very thick batter. Stir in corn.
• Heat griddle or large skillet over medium heat with some of remaining melted butter. Working in batches and using 1 tablespoon batter for each corn cake, drop batter onto skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°. In a blender, combine the buttermilk, heavy cream, creamed corn, whole eggs, egg yolks and 2 tablespoons of the oil and puree.
• In a large bowl, whisk the cornmeal with the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Slowly stir in the wet ingredients and fold in the scallions, corn kernels and jalapeño. Do not overmix; there should be a few lumps.
• Heat a large cast iron griddle or skillet. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the vegetable oil until shimmering. Spoon three 1/3 cup portions of the batter into the skillet and cook over moderately high heat until starting to brown around the edges, about 1 minute. Add 1 teaspoon of the butter to the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the surface of the cakes, about 2 minutes. Flip the cakes and cook until browned on the second side. Transfer them to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining oil, batter and butter. Serve the corn cakes hot, with butter and honey.
