For the arepas: Pour the warm water with the salt and mix to dissolve. Then, gradually add the P.A.N.® Pre-cooked White Corn Flour, mixing for 2 minutes until a smooth dough is obtained, and let it rest for 5 minutes. Divide the dough into 8 to 10 equal portions, form balls of dough, and flatten with the palms of your hands until forming discs of 10 to 12 cm. Grill the arepas on a griddle or comal over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side or until cooked. Open them on one side and set aside. For the filling: Cook the seasoned meat to taste in a skillet or directly on the grill to your desired doneness, then season with salt and pepper. Slice thinly. Set aside. Fill the llanera arepas by adding fresh cheese, slices of tomato, avocado, and the sliced meat. Serve with guasacaca.
