Arepas Recipe in Air Fryer - quearepas.com
Preparing arepas in the Air Fryer is a quick and easy method that produces arepas that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. First, the corn flour dough is mixed with water and salt. Then, the arepas are formed and cooked in the Air Fryer for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Precooked corn flour
- 2 cups Water
- 1 Pinch Salt
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the precooked corn flour with water and salt, until a soft and manageable dough is obtained. The amount of water may vary according to the brand of flour, but generally a ratio of 1:1 (one part flour to one part water) is used.
- Form balls of dough approximately 2-3 inches in diameter and flatten them to form the arepas. Make sure they are evenly thick so they cook evenly.
- Preheat the Air Fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 200 degrees Celsius) for about 5 minutes.
- Place the arepas in the Air Fryer basket and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time so that they cook evenly.
- Once the arepas are golden brown and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, remove them from the Air Fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
