I used this recipe and these tamales were excellent. The only thing I did differently is, I chose to use a colby jack cheese rather than mozzarella. Using an Italian cheese just didn't seem right. The Colby Jack melted perfectly and the tamales were such a hit, we ended up eating all in one sitting. Making more today!

Hi Sandy. Thank you for improvising and making this healthy tamale recipe work.

This is the right recipe I was looking for, thank you for sharing!

Thank you very much!

Thank you for the great recipes. Can you please show us how to make pupusas? That is not Mexican food but it looks delicious.

i bought some corn flour that is used for masa. so do i just place the dough in the husks and do the rest?

Can we still add red sauce to this corn dough to give it more flavor?

What can I use instead of w steamer?

A pressure cooker or insta-pot (like a rice steamer, but with pressure) are awesome tools, and tamales take about 20-30 mins rather than 2 hours!

I love making tamales. I make them the regular way but if I tried this recipe what can I substitute for coconut oil?

Hi Sandy, thank you so much for sharing this recipe and video. I had no idea you could make tamale masa with canned corn and corn meal -- two things I have on hand right now! But was wondering if you could substitute the coconut oil for vegetable oil, butter, a mixture of the two?...or if that would make the texture weird? Let me know what you think.

I'd say go for it and experiment! As long as you're willing to eat your experiments no loss, no harm, no foul! LOL

Can you add corn to instant masa also? Then add whatever you like as a filling too? Those you made looked amazing but not a pepper or onion fan. :( Thanks!! 🤔😋

I always wanted to try tamales and muffins :(

We followed the recipe but it came out sticky and not doughy. What could I do to make it a humid like substance?

Can I make these with chicken too?

great recipe , and preety girl , holy mackrel

Easy Cooking with Sandy I'm sorry what I'm asking is when you said make sure they are dry before we put the mass. So after you soak them how did you dry them? Thank you.

I tried your recipe but the dough would slide off the husk, why? Did I need more cornmeal and less coconut oil? Please help...my tamales are taking way too long to cook.

@IrisCrain

7 жыл бұрын

My guess? The corn husks likely need dried really well with a towel after you soak them. Then the Masa will stick better. With the Masa having an oily base texture, the water on the husks repels the oil, and you get slide! You could also try *refrigerating* the coconut oil (it's liquid at room temp) to make it stiffer and create more of an emulsion with the water in the dough, which won't be as slippery until they're steamed and the oil melts. Just my ideas to try.

I followed this recipe to the letter, and they came out dry! I should have used masa mix rather than cornmeal, and more coconut oil.

ty u sooooooooooooo much.....do not eat pork ever.....how many does it make?

Can the corn husks be reused?

Oh my Goodness, you are SO BEAUTIFUL💓

Why do they have to steam so long?

Ok Sandy. I'm an English speaker and when someone from a different country tries to explain in English a recipe that clearly demonstrates by action and narration a recipe, I am going to be critical. First off, are they organized. Second, do they really know what they are doing by way of working their way around the kitchen. Thirdly, do they have command of the English language well enough to convey to English speakers what they need to do.I am so happy to say you are an ACE!. First, you showed off all the ingredients necessary for the recipe and their respective measurements or at least, provided a blog to refer to. Second, you demonstrated the preparation and cooking process very efficiently. There were no slip ups whatsoever that I could see or that turned me off. Thirdly, your accent is so very strong but that's ok. It's ok because your knowledge of English is as good as any native English speaker. And that allows you to very effectively and efficiently impart your knowledge to your targeted audience...............especially me.Thank you for not only this healthy version of tamales, but also, demonstrating it in a very easy way to replicate.For this video you get my like and my subscribe.Keep 'em coming

I think the point he was making that you missed is that he's *normally* critical of people from other countries making videos in english, but he found her video met none of his usual criteria for criticism! I tend to think of language in a "first point, second point" bulleted fashion, it's a sign of a well-educated (or organized, or both) mind. My condolances that you don't share such.

For someone who's so critical you certainly should have proof-read your own comment. You wrote, "For this video you get my like and my subscribe [sic].Keep 'em coming" I copied and pasted what you wrote; and there is more than one error there. Just saying.

I think this is so judgmental. I know you’re complimenting her but the fact that you do this to others too is astounding to me. I don’t know who you are, or where you’re from but anyone who is learning English is already light years ahead of most native English speakers. She and anyone attempting to learn English already at least knows one other language and the fact that they are trying to learn in order to communicate with other people (instead of others learning their language to communicate with them) is already remarkable. Not only that but those with accents are likely people who have started learning at a later age, which is far more difficult than learning from a young age. This goes for not just English but any language. Never feel ashamed of making mistakes while learning a language because you’re trying and that’s such an accomplishment in itself. Language is immensely difficult. Of course you can get better but if someone is going to put you down and say that the way you speak is a “turn off”, well that is just ridiculous. By the way, if my grammar is off or anything it’s because I’m on my phone and editing messages is difficult so please don’t assume my English is bad. Thanks
