hi guys welcome back to my channel today i'm going to share with you guys how to make a delicious tamale casserole in case you just want to help make this super easy and delicious recipe just stay tuned and i'll show you how alrighty guys so let's get started with the ingredients so for this recipe we're going to need two pounds of chocolate roast corn husk or parchment paper one white onion five garlic cloves three bay leaves eight new mexico or guajillo chili pots two chile pasilla chile de arbol six tomatillos three cups of maseka for tamale one cup of lard two and a half teaspoons of baking powder a half a teaspoon of whole cumin and salt so these are ingredients now let's get started okay so further going to soak our corn husk and now you just want to make sure that you clean them before you soak them and just spread them apart just like that and i'm going to put pressure on them okay so now we're going to bring 15 cups of water to a boil and i have it set on medium high heat and once it comes to a boil we're going to add our meat and i just cut my meat into four pieces we're going to add our three bay leaves three garlic cloves half of the onion and salt so i'm adding about two tablespoons of salt so now we're just going to leave it in there for about an hour and a half to two hours all right guys so all the way from me we're going to place our tomatillos and chiles into a pot with water i already cleaned them and take out the vein in the seeds so we're just going to allow them to come to a boil okay so as soon as our chilies come to a boil we're going to turn it off and set them to the side all right guys so once our meat is soft we're going to remove it from the broth we're going to place it in a plate so i can cool down so we can shred it all right and as for our broth we're going to strain it just strain your broth we're going to be using the broth for our masa and for us chile sauce all right so now in our blender we're going to add our chiles and our tomatillo we're going to add the other half of our onion two garlic cloves our cumin and one cup and a half of our broth so now we're going to blend everything together until we have a very smooth sauce all right so once we have our sauce we can set it to the side so like that we can start and shred our meat all right so i'm just going to use two forks and shred it and you can use your mixer if it's easier for you so just straighten your meat all right so once we have our meat all nice and shredded now we are ready to put it together with our chili sauce there's a small frying pan we're going to set it on medium heat and we're just going to wait for that to heat up before we throw in our sauce okay so once our pan is hot we're going to throw in our sauce mix it mix it mix it so they don't splatter all over you and then we're going to grab a little bit of broth just so we can get the remaining of the sauce so we don't let it go to waste i'm just going to lower it down i'm going to keep mixing it and then wait for it to come to a full simmer all right so once this simmers like that we're going to try for salt okay so we're just going to add a little bit okay and now we're going to add our meat so mix it all right so now we're just going to let it simmer for five minutes all right so after five minutes we're going to turn it off and set it to the side okay so now to make our masa we're going to use three quarters of a cup of a lard and you can use your mixer for this part or just use your hands so now we're just going to soften our lard so just use your hands kind of beat it with your hands all right so once we have our into a lotion consistency we're going to begin to add half of our a masa and just incorporate it with your lard okay we're also going to add our baking powder so just mix it okay so we're going to add the remaining of our masa and i incorporate it all together okay so i'm also going to add salt now depends on how much salt you add to your broth it depends on how much salt you're going to add into your masa so i'm just going to add one teaspoon okay so now our masa should be feeling like sand so we're going to start adding our broth so add a little bit at a time and your and your brother is still nice and warm and that's what you want okay so i added two cups and a half of broth and you want your masa to be like this so it's still wet all right so now we're just going to knead until we have a smooth masa so right now it still feels like a little bit like sand so we don't want that so just knead and you also want to try it for salt and for me my masa is fine so i'm not going to add anything now we're just going to knead all right guys so once our masa is nice and soft now we are ready to put together our tamale casserole okay so first we're going to preheat our oven to 350 degrees and we're also going to place a baking dish halfway full with water on the bottom rack so i have to place on the bottom just because my pot is going to be big so i don't have space for the other rack but right there it's fine all right guys so before we get started we're going to grab our dough just form a small ball like that and we're going to cut it in half okay so now we can get our pot together all right guys i'm going to be using my six cord dutch oven um and we're going to line we're going to line it with our corn husk just make it make sure that it's all nice and even and make sure that the soft part is facing up so now we're going to grab half of our masa and we're going to cover the bottom just press down make sure that the whole bottom is covered with your masa and make sure that your masa is even okay so once we have our nice layer of masa on the bottom now we're going to grab our corn husk and go around the masa so just pull it forward a little and tuck them in there and again make sure that the soft part is in the inside okay so now we're going to add our filling all right so once we have it all nice and even we're going to grab another piece of masa and kind of flatten it out a little flatten it out as much as you can okay so now we're going to place this on top of that so on top of our filling and we're just going to spread it with our hands spread it outward where we this layer has to be even as well and you can't weigh your hands you guys so like that it's easier for you to move your muscle and then use a spatula and just push it out so we just want it to be even so like that it cooks even and don't rush it don't rush the process just have fun with it let me tell you that it's gonna be worth it all right guys so once we have everything on nice and flat we're going to grab our leaves and just carefully bend them inward okay so now i'm just going to grab my lid cover it and set it in the oven alright so now we're going to set it in the oven and let it bake for one hour to one hour and 15 minutes alright guys so after an hour and 10 minutes we're going to remove our casserole and we're going to let it cool down for at least 20 minutes okay so once you're ready to cut into your tamale um you can cut it like that you know just cut it into like like cake like how you will cut a cake or i'm just going to place my leaves back into the pot you can use something that's big enough i'm gonna be using my cutting board place it like that and we're going to flip it over so pick it up and just remove the leaves and that's basically it we can cut into it now and if you want just try to remove the leaves from the bottom like that or you can just start cutting it like that and of course it all it's all going to depend on how big you want your pieces to be or how many people you're going to feed nothing's going to go away so don't worry about that okay because we have the leaves still and there you go look at this so good alright you guys and now for the best part the taste test and of course you can top it you know with sour cream your tapatio or whatever but to me this is seriously so good by itself hmm seriously super delicious you get enough of everything all that meat in the masa so it's just perfect and this is perfect you know if you
