Description

Learn how to make cachapas, corn pancakes traditionally from Venezuela. Fill them with cheese and serve with a spicy dipping sauce.

Method

Step 1 of 5

Microwave corn for 5 minutes. Trim stem ends, hold husks at the top and allow cob to slide out. Discard husks and silk, then cut off kernels (you will need 4 1/2 cups).

Step 2 of 5

Combine kernels, flour, cornflour, baking powder, milk, egg, sugar and 2 tsp sea salt flakes in a food processor. Process to a smooth batter.

Step 3 of 5

Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Step 4 of 5

Heat 1 tsp oil in 2 large non-stick frying pans over medium heat. Add 1/3 cup batter to each and spread to a 14cm round. Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles form over surface. Turn over and cook for a further 2 minutes or until cooked through. Turn again and top half the pancakes with 1/4 cup cheese. Fold pancakes over filling and cook for 1 minute. Transfer to tray and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining oil and batter to make 12.

Step 5 of 5

Sprinkle over parsley and serve hot with relish.
