👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Blend fresh corn kernels with milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt until a thick, slightly coarse batter forms; do not overmix.
2. Melt a small amount of butter on a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
3. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per arepa onto the griddle, spreading it slightly to form a thick disk.
4. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through; the arepas should be soft in the center.
5. Serve warm, often split open and filled or topped with white cheese; optionally add a little more butter.
