Instructions
- 1
Blend the corn kernels, milk, egg, cornmeal, sugar, and salt into a coarse batter.
- 2
Rest the batter for 10 minutes so the cornmeal absorbs moisture.
10 min10:00 - 3
Grease a pan with a small amount of butter and heat over medium heat.
- 4
Pour in a ladle of batter and cook the first side for 4 minutes, until the edges set.
4 min04:00 - 5
Turn the corn pancake and cook the second side for 3 minutes.
3 min03:00 - 6
While hot, add string cheese and mozzarella and fold in half.
- 7
Repeat with the remaining batter and serve hot while the cheese melts.
💡 Tip: If you cannot find queso de mano, use a mix of string cheese and a little mozzarella; it comes close to a stretchy texture that melts without fully running.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Fold the hot cachapas in half and serve on a breakfast plate with tomato salad and ayran if desired.
