Pupusas are hand-made and thick. Like all [[corn tortillas]], they are made using [[masa harina]]. They originate from El Salvador.

{{RecipeIngredients
| 2 cups of [[grated]] [[cheese]] (use a mixture of [[cheeses]]; [[Cheddar]], [[Mozzarella]] and [[ricotta]])
| 3 tablespoons of [[double cream]]
| ½ a cup of chopped [[spring onions]]
| [[Sea salt]] to taste
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| [[Corn tortilla recipe|Make the tortillas as shown here]], but don't cook them yet
| Mix all of the ingredients together to make a soft paste
| Divide the mixture into balls, slightly larger than golf-balls and place each ball in the centre of the tortilla and press the mixture out, leaving a gap around the edge
| Cover with another [[tortilla]] and press together to seal
| Heat a griddle pan or heavy frying pan and wipe over with a lightly oiled kitchen towel
| Cook each pupusa until it is nicely [[toasted]]. This will take about 4 minutes a side
| Keep warm while you cook the remaining pupusas
}}
===Chef's tip===
Serve with [[curtido]]
===Serving suggestions===
To prevent the [[tortillas]] sticking to the press, place the 'golf-ball' inside a folded piece of [[Bake-O-Glide]]
