- * Note: If you cannot find Instant corn masa mix, extra-fine corn meal can be substituted.
- Combine corn, salt, sugar, egg whites and 3 Tbsp. instant masa in blender and mix well till milky mix is formed, 1 to 2 min. If mix is too thin, add in 1 Tbsp. masa at a time till mix is thickened.
- Lightly butter large skillet or possibly griddle and set over medium-low heat. Pour 1/4 c. batter for each pancake in warm skillet, making 2 to 3 at once, and cook till sides of pancakes begin to turn golden, 2 to 3 min.
- Turn and cook pancakes an additional 2 to 3 min. Serve with a slice of queso fresco, if you like.
- This recipe yields 5 to 6 cachapas.
- Comments: Queso fresco is a good topping, but a dollop of lowfat sour cream can also be used. Cachapas are generally eaten instead of bread in Venezuela, but they can be prepared as an appetizer. Make them silver dollar-size and top with lowfat sour cream and some minced dill.
