Salsa stuffed Corn Tamales instructions

  1. Take corn in a blender. Blend it smooth. Add salt and butter and again blend it well. Remove and keep aside..
  2. Add in baking powder and maize flour. Mix well to form a pliable dough. Let the dough rest aside for 15 minutes..
  3. Roast the tomatoes and chillies till their skin turns black. Remove the skin and chop the tomatoes chillies and onion..
  4. 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.
  5. 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..
  6. 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..
  7. 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..
  8. 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..
  9. Serve the tamale with drizzle of lime juice and some chopped tomatoes. The tamale is ready to serve..
