Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F / 180 C.
Stir the precooked cornmeal and salt together.
Slowly add the water while continuously mixing until a soft dough has formed.
Knead for 3-4 minutes before resting the dough for 15 minutes.
Divide the dough equally into 6-8 pieces.
Shape each piece into a ball with your hands and gently press to form a disc shape.
Heat ½ of the oil in a pan and cook 3 arepas until lightly golden on each side. Repeat with remaining arepas.
Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes.
Allow to cool slightly before slicing in half and serving with your favorite fillings.
