Tamales are a traditional Mexican dish made with a corn-based dough mixture that is filled with various types of meat or beans and cheese. Tamales are wrapped and cooked in corn husks or banana leaves, but they are removed from the husks before eating. Try them served with pico de gallo on top and a side of guacamole and rice.
