Arepas Recipe for Project
Here's my rough draft for a recipe about Arepas, a native Venezuelan corn cake dish. Input is apreciated. 
- Precaliente el horno a 400 grados Fahrenheit. En un cuenco grande, mezcle la sal y la masarepa. Vierta 2 ½ tazas del agua en el cuenco y mezcle con una cuchara de madera. Cubra con una toalla y mueva a un lado por 5-10 minutos.
- Con los manos mojados, forme tortas de la masa aproximadamente 3 pulgadas de ancho. Si la masa raja, añada más agua.
- Caliente el aceite en una sartén a calor modero. Saltee las tortas por 5-6 minutos, para formar una corteza marrón.
- Cuándo todos pasteles son marrones, muévalos a una hoja de cocina, y hornee en el horno por 15-20 minutos. Sirva inmediatamente.

Las manos.
Si la masa se raja....
A calor moderado
Cuando (no accent) todas las tortas (these are not pasteles!) estén doradas (not marrones!), muévalos a una lata de hornear, y hornee (no need for el horno, that's redundant).
This is one way to make arepas. Not how I learned while I was in Venezuela, but there are many different ways to go about it. You can find plenty of videos to show different techniques, in Youtube. 
This is how they are made in restaurants.
This is how I learned to make them.
Thanks for the input! I know there are lots of different ways to make arepas; when I searched them, I was surprised at how many results there were. It took me forever to track down some masarepa to make some authentic arepas. I already turned in the project, but it's nice to know Spanishdict has a helpful Spanish learning community. If I could give you a vote, I would!
