From the streets of El Salvador, these are masa 'cakes' with a filling that is fried. The usual fillings are meat or cheese but there is no reason why beans etc could not be used.

Not bad for a first attempt! The pupusas were a bit dry, but overall they were still tasty. I'll definitely try making them again.
