Pupusas is a street food from El Salvador. I was getting ready to experiment in the kitchen when my friend suggested that I try a few dishes from that region.

• Corn Masa
• Refried beans and soft cheese (other fillings are also common)

1. Add water to the masa and kneed it until it turns into a non-sticky dough. You know it is done when you can press the dough and it doesn’t break at the sides.
2. Take a 2″ piece of dough and form it into a ball, flatten it into a round and add filling in the center
3. Close the sides of the round over the filling and then flatten the entire ball into a 1/4″ “pancake” shape
4. Grill on both sides for 3-4 minutes
