Pupusas De Queso Cheese Stuffed Tortillas Recipes
CHEESE PUPUSAS
Cheese pupusas - stuffed, griddled masa cakes - and their accompanying slaw, curtido, are quintessential Salvadoran street foods. This recipe is adapted from Janet Lainez, who has been making them for homesick Latinos every summer at the Red Hook Ball Fields for nearly 25 years. She likes to use mozzarella rather than Salvadoran cheese - preferably Polly-O, established in Brooklyn, 1899.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix the salt well into the masa harina. With your hands, knead the water into the masa harina in a few additions; work in all the water evenly. The dough will feel like stiff mashed potatoes. Lay a 12-inch square of plastic wrap or a zip-lock on a smooth work surface.
- Divide the cheese into 9 equal piles. Roll a 2-ounce ball of dough in your hands, about the size of a golf ball, and pat it out in your hand to form a disc a little larger than your palm. (If the dough is very sticky, lightly moisten or oil your hands.) Pat a pile of cheese onto the masa, leaving just a little space around the edges (cup your hand slightly if it helps). Carefully close your hand to bring the edges of the disc closer, and use your other hand to pat and pinch it together to enclose the cheese in a rough ball. Patch any holes with a little more masa, but don't worry too much - cheese that leaks out will brown deliciously in the pan. Moisten or oil the plastic wrap, and pat out the pupusa on it, forming a disc about 4 inches wide. Repeat, forming a second pupusa.
- Heat a large nonstick sauté pan over medium heat, and very lightly grease it with oil. When the oil appears thin, lay the pupusas in the pan, and cook until richly browned in spots, about 4 minutes. (If you can fit 3 or 4 pupusas at a time in the pan, increase heat to medium-high.) It's O.K. if the cheese starts to bubble out. Flip the pupusas, and cook another 4 minutes, until they're browned and cooked through. Serve finished ones immediately with curtido, and repeat forming and cooking the remaining pupusas.

- In a blender, combine the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, worcestershire sauce, and salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust salt if needed and refrigerate until ready to use.
- In a large bowl, combine the masa harina and water with your hands to form a smooth, pliable dough. If too sticky to form, mix in a little more masa harina. If too dry and begins to crack when formed, add a little more water.

- Mix masa harina and salt in a bowl. Add the hot water, starting with 1 1/2 cups and mix until all the masa is moistened and a fluffy dough forms. (Add more water if necessary.) Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.
- Dip your hands into some water to keep the dough from sticking to your hands (and to help hydrate the dough if it crumbles as you shape it, meaning it’s too dry). Pinch off about a golf ball size (roughly 2 Tbsp) of dough and shape into a ball. Form an indentation in the dough ball with your thumbs. Place about 2-3 tsp of cheese into the hole. Pinch a little more dough as needed to cover the hole and seal the filling in the dough ball.
- Repeat with the remaining dough, keeping already filled masa balls under a damp tea towel while you work.
