Ingredients
Tamale Filling Recipe:
- Mashed black beans
- Any veggies of your choice, finely diced
- Use colored peppers
- Flavor with chilies & salt
Outer masa layer:
- Make a paste of onions, garlic, chili, salt
- Add Masa flour spice paste and water
- Should be like Adai or pancake batter consistency!
Take masa paste with your fingers. Spread it on a corn husk, add a little filling in the center. Close and seal tamale. Stack them in a steaming basket or pasta maker insert. I used a steel colander inside a steel pot. Cover and steam for 25-30 mins.
I just added vegetable stock cut up two tomatoes, one union, chilies, Serrano peppers, salt , total seasoning and garlic
Blended that together in blender but vegetable stock needs to be hot so the masa is easier to work with
Mole Verde or Pipian
- Dry roasted Pumpkin seeds or Pepita
- Tomatillos
- Onion
- Garlic
- Jalapeños & chilies
- Salt
Grind all to chutney consistency. Serve warmed up.
Warm tamales and Pipian and serve hot!!!
