Method
- In a bowl, mix the cornmeal (arepas need the pre-cooked kind) with a pinch of salt and add lukewarm water a little at a time, about one and a half times its weight, kneading until soft and no longer cracking. Shape it into a ball and flatten it into a disc about 1.5 cm thick.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, grease it with half the oil and cook the arepa for 6 minutes per side, until it has a golden crust and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Meanwhile, dice the tomato, slice the spring onion and crumble the tofu with your fingers.
- In another pan, heat the remaining oil over medium heat, cook the spring onion for a minute, then add the tomato, tofu, turmeric and salt and scramble for 5 minutes, until the tomato softens and the tofu is hot and dry.
- Slice the avocado, split the arepa open like a pocket with a knife and fill it with the tofu and avocado.
