Spanish recipe for delicious arepas, small breads made from corn filled with chicken. Easy, cheap and quick!
Could you tell me if this corn flour is the same or different from the corn flour (masa) used to make tamales and pupusas? I have a bag of Maseca (instant corn flour mix) and would like to know if I can use that. 
To be honest, we're unfamiliar with all those kinds of flour. For example, making tamales for the first time is still on our to do list. But we did some research, and we think it's a different type of corn flour. On different pages we found using Google, they say both flour types have different processes. 
for Arepas you use "harina P.A.N." pre-cooked corn flour. popular with Portuguese and Caribbean people... also Colombian and Venezuelan of course.
Thank you, that's exactly the one we used. We shall be more precise about the flour in our ingredient list :)
