AREPAS: AREPAS DE CHOCLO
Steps:
- Defrost the corn by placing it in a colander and rinsing it under cold water. Drain well and set aside for about 10 minutes.
- Place the defrosted corn in a blender and puree with the milk, sugar, salt, and pepper, to taste. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl and stir in the cornmeal to make a thick pancake-like batter.
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Add 3 tablespoons of the arepa batter to skillet, using the bottom of a spoon to flatten. Spread the batter into a 3 to 4-inch circle. Cook arepas for about 8 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown. Flip arepa and cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes until crisp. Add more butter from the remaining 3 tablespoons to the skillet between batches when necessary.
- With a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut out circles from the cooked arepas while still warm. Lay 1 slice mozzarella cheese over cut out arepa. Top with another cut out arepa to create a sandwich.
AREPAS DE CHOCLO WITH AVOCADO SALAD
Arepas, corn cakes that are a cornerstone of Colombian and Venezuelan cuisines, come in many guises, depending on the region, the season and the available ingredients. This slightly sweet, cheese-filled version, called arepas de choclo, is adapted from "Colombiana" (HarperCollins, 2021), a cookbook by the Colombian food stylist Mariana Velásquez. The dough, which uses a combination of fresh corn kernels and yellow masarepa (precooked cornmeal), fries up into rich, moist, golden cakes that are like a more delicate version of the mozzarella-stuffed arepas found at street fairs. Ms. Velásquez pairs these with a lemony tomato and avocado salad to offer a soft and juicy contrast to the crisp-edged cakes. Perfect for a summery brunch, these also make an excellent light lunch or dinner. If you can't find masarepa (P.A.N. is one brand available in large supermarkets), Ms. Velásquez recommends substituting instant polenta. But don't use masa harina, which is a different product altogether.

Steps:
- In a food processor, process corn until kernels break down and mixture is smooth. Transfer ground corn into a large bowl, and add cornmeal, quesito, Manchego, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a wooden spoon, combine ingredients. Stir in milk and 3 tablespoons melted butter until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 to 15 minutes to allow cornmeal to absorb the liquid.
- While the batter rests, make the avocado salad: In a medium bowl, combine avocado and tomatoes. Add lemon juice and oil, and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high. Melt 1 tablespoon butter until bubbles form. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the skillet or griddle, and, with the back of a spoon or offset spatula, spread batter into 4- to 5-inch rounds. Depending on the size of your skillet, repeat with batter, frying 2 arepas at a time. Do not crowd the pan. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer arepas to a paper towel-lined plate and tent foil on top to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed. Reduce heat if pan is getting too hot.
- Top arepas with avocado salad. Garnish with cilantro and quesito, and serve immediately.

You can also put the fresh corn (removed from the cob) into a blender (DON'T use canned corn), add some salt, and some corn starch to reduce the moisture consistency. Then you can prepare the arepas the same way you would prepare pancakes in a pan.
