How to make Homemade Beef Tamales Recipe - Mexican
FAQ
The secret to getting a soft, plush filling that pulls away from the sides of the corn husk as it cooks is always using a fat. Traditionally, these tamales are made with pork lard or vegetable shortening, but some modern recipes have also substituted canola or vegetable oil.
Making the best tamales. You need a masa that is not dry and crumbly, making you sip after every bite. But the masa should be set, not mushy or runny. It should also be light, not heavy and dense. And of course, you need a delicious filling.
The bright, herbal and spicy mix of tomatillo and green chilies pair up with chicken or pork to create the most popular tamal, whether it comes wrapped in corn or plantain.
Beef Filling
- 6 lb brisket.
- 1 onion.
- 6 cloves garlic peeled.
- 3 tsp salt.
- 6 peppercorns.
- 8 dried ancho chiles.
- 1 Tbsp comino cumin seeds.
- Water to cover.
One of the biggest mistakes is not mixing the masa dough long enough; this causes the tamales to fall apart.
