Salsa stuffed Corn Tamales instructions
- Take corn in a blender. Blend it smooth. Add salt and butter and again blend it well. Remove and keep aside..
- Add in baking powder and maize flour. Mix well to form a pliable dough. Let the dough rest aside for 15 minutes..
- Roast the tomatoes and chillies till their skin turns black. Remove the skin and chop the tomatoes chillies and onion..
- Add all the chopped veggies in a blender. Add lime juice, salt and give it brief stir. We want a coarse mixture not wholly blended. Keep aside.
- Take the corn husks and clean them. I used fresh ones as they are available. Take a husk and keep the wide side facing you. Spread a spoonful of the corn dough facing the wide side. Stuff a spoon full of salsa in it. Dont spread dough on the sides. Leave them open..
- Overlap the both sides of the husk. Bring the narrow side up so as to form a parcel which is open on the upper side. Fasten the parcel with a corn thread. Repeat for remaining dough..
- Meanwhile add some water in a kadhai. Keep a strainer above. Let steam form. Keep the parcels on the strainer in a container with their open ends facing upwards. Steam for 30 minutes. Add water if it evaporates in between..
- After 30 minutes check the parcels. Insert a toothpick in it. If it comes out clean it's done else steam for some more time..
- Serve the tamale with drizzle of lime juice and some chopped tomatoes. The tamale is ready to serve..
