Pupusas de ajo con queso (Pupusas with garlic and cheese)


Pupusas with garlic and cheese


Last month I travelled to El Salvador for the first time since 2017 and had the blessing of taking my husband with me for his first time ever! During our visit we went to Los Planes de renderos and went to a restaurant where we had pupusas fillid with garlic and chesse. They were life changing for my husband and I, so I naturally had to make my own version at home.


How to make garlic and cheese pupusas?

Making pupusas has multiple steps but since these are filled with just garlic and cheese it's a much shorter process. However, if this is your first time making pupusas check out the Pupusa series, where I walk you through the process step by step. Before making pupusas read the instructions for each step, making curtido and tomato sauce are optional but i've linked them below as well.


Ingredients:

  • 2 cups Masa Harina

  • 2 cups warm water

  • 4 cups quesillo, mozarella or oaxaca cheese. I swear by the mozarella cheese from Sam's Club.

  • 2-3 tbsp of minced garlic

  • 1 tbsp oil


Instructions:

  • Make the curtido

  • Make the tomato sauce

  • Make the masa

  • Prepare the garlic cheese filling

    1. Peel 1-2 garlic heads, this will be about 10-20 garlic cloves. You can mince it using a mincer, manually with a knife or a processor with a bit of oil. My preffered method is to use a processor, it gives it a better consistency.

    2. In a bowl add in the shreeded cheese and the minced garlic. Mix and knead until the cheese is clumpy and the garlic is evenly distributed. You should be able to grab a chunk of cheese without falling apart.

  • Make the pupusa- Making cheese pupusas perfectly can be tricky, you will get these with practice. Mine still bust open from the cheese, so they may not look perfect but they taste heavenly.


I hope you enjoy these garlic and cheese pupusas as much as i LOVED eating them! For more recipes follow @FLOURISHWITHG on Instagram, Tiktok, and pinterest!
