Pupusas are a favorite of Salvadoran cuisine, thick handmade corn tortillas, salads and stuffed with an extraordinary flavor; either with beans, cheese or pork. In our version, the pupusas, in addition to being delicious, are very easy to prepare, made with GOYA® Masarica and filled with the exquisite flavor of GOYA® Flipped Red Beans and white cheese. At the end they are served with a coleslaw, pickled cabbage.
Ingredients
Para las pupusas
- 2 cups of Harina masarica
- 1 tablespoon of Adobo without pepper GOYA
- 3 cups of hot water
Para el relleno
- 1 can of Refried Red Beans Ducal
- 220 grams of white cheese or other salty mild, shredded cheese
Para acompañar
- 1 Cabbage salad, style pickled vegetables
Preparation
- In bowl, combine Masarica, Adobo and 2 cups of water. Mix until water is absorbed. Using hands, knead Masarica mixture, adding remaining water a little at a time, until moist dough is formed. You may not need all the water.
- Using hands, roll 3 tablespoons dough into ball. Flatten into disk that measures 5” round and 1/8” thick; repeat with remaining dough to form 16 disks, cover dough and disks with damp towel as you work. Spread 1 tablespoon refried beans or cheese evenly over one round . Season with Adobo. Cover with another round; crimp the bottom edge over the top to seal. As a variation, you can combine both beans and cheese in same pupusa. Repeat using remaining dough, beans and cheese until 8 pupusas are formed.
- On a medium hot, lightly oiled griddle or skillet cook pupusas until browned on both sides, flipping once, 6-8 minutes.
- Serve hot with cabbage salad accompaniment.
