Yield 4 corn pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 ears fresh corn
2 tablespoons masa harina
Pinch kosher salt
1 teaspoon canola oil
1/4 pound Venezuelan cheese, sliced (Queso blanco, mozzarella, or feta can be substituted)

Steps:

  • Scrape corn kernels from the cobs; run the back of your knife along the cob to extract all the corn liquid. Put corn into a food processor and pulse a few times to break up the kernels. Add masa harina and salt and pulse to incorporate. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium low heat. Divide the mixture into 4 and make 4 corn cakes. Cover and let the cakes cook for 5 minutes. Uncover the pan and carefully flip the cachapas over. Press on them with a spatula to flatten them a bit. Cook, covered, for another 5 minutes. Uncover and cook for about 5 more minutes; they should be a dark golden brown. Top with the cheese and cover until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of corn, but I actually really enjoyed these pancakes. They were light and fluffy, and the cheese added a nice flavor.

These pancakes were really good, but they were a little too time-consuming to make. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

These pancakes were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These pancakes were amazing! The corn flavor was really prominent, and the cheese added a nice gooey texture. I served them with sour cream and salsa, and they were the perfect breakfast.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pancakes turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't add enough milk? I'll have to try them again.

These pancakes were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more spices to the batter next time.

These pancakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might try adding a little bit of milk or yogurt to the batter next time.
