I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pupusas turned out really dry. The masa cakes were not fluffy at all, and the curtido slaw was not very flavorful. I would not make these again.

These pupusas were a bit too greasy for my taste. The masa cakes were not very crispy, and the curtido slaw was not very flavorful. I would not make these again.

The pupusas were good, but the curtido slaw was a bit too spicy for me. I would make the pupusas again, but I would use a different slaw recipe.

These pupusas were a bit bland for my taste. The masa cakes were not very flavorful, and the curtido slaw was not spicy enough. I would not make these again.

These pupusas were a hit! The masa cakes were perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the curtido slaw was the perfect tangy and spicy accompaniment. I'll definitely be making these again.
