Arepas de Vieques

==Description==
Vieques-style fritters
==Ingredients==
* 1 1/3 cups whole milk
* 2 oz grated Cheddar Cheese
* 2 tablespoonfuls margarine or cooking oil
(B)
* 1 large egg at room temperature
* 1 1/2 cups cornmeal
* 1/2 cup wheat flour
* 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
* 1 teaspoon Sugar or equivalent substitute such as Equal or Splenda
* Enough frying oil
==Directions==
# Melt the Cheese and margarine in the milk at medium or medium-low heat. Stir occasionally until the Cheese and margarine have melted.
# Add the egg and whisk into the mix.
# Mix together the remaining ingredients in (B). Slowly add them to the mix, whisking frequently to avoid lumping.
# Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool, or refrigerate until the next day.
# Blend all ingredients together.
# Use a ladle to measure out enough mixture to form flour patties, which can be anywhere from three to six inches in diameter and about as thick as a loaf of sandwich bread.
# Fry in a deep skillet with enough oil to assure even cooking on both sides. Remove when color is a light golden tan. Serve while still warm.
