What Are Pupusas?

Rinse cabbage, drain, and dry. Combine with carrots, jalapeños, brine, vinegar, oregano, salt, and refrigerate until ready to eat.

Make the Curtido

Mix flour, salt, water, and oil in a bowl. Then cover with a damp towel.

Make the Dough

Cook the poblano, onion, cilantro, garlic, beans, and salt in a skillet with hot oil.

Cook the Filling

Transfer to a medium bowl, let cool for five minutes, and then add the cheese.

Add the Cheese

Knead the dough for 20 seconds, then form into a flattened ball on a floured surface.

Knead the Dough

Cut the dough into eight equal pieces and cover with a damp towel.

Cut the Dough

Fill a bowl with ¾ cup of water and ½ teaspoon of oil, and wet your hands to prevent the dough from sticking.

Wet Your Hands

Roll each piece into a ball and flatten it into a ¼-inch disk using your fingers pressed onto your palm.

Flatten the Pupusas

Scoop black bean filling into the center of the disc, cover the edges, and flatten them to form a 5 to 5 ½-inch disc.

Fill the Pupusas

Cook for 7-10 minutes, turning halfway, until browned and crisp on the outside.

Cook the Pupusas

Top each black bean pupusa with avocado and curtido.

Enjoy!
