Traditionally, they were cooked on a pan called a&nbsp;<em>budare<\/em>. But they can also be grilled, baked, or fried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arepas are made with pre-cooked cornmeal (masarepa &#8211; available in Latin food aisles in many supermarkets) mixed with water and a bit of salt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arepas are cooked on a griddle or skillet until the outsides are nice and crisp and golden brown, and the insides are soft and fluffy.
