VEGAN GREEN TAMALES | Chile Verde Jackfruit | Mexican Food

Hi guys! Welcome back to my channel. My name is Airam pronounced like “Eye-rum.”
Today’s video is a Holiday favorite! Tamales! I have previously made red jackfruit tamales & vegan cheese with jalapeño. Today I wanted to highlight the masa for the tamales. Over my past few times I made them, I took my families constructive criticism that they gave me. They loved my tamales but said they needed that traditional greasy vibe. So I made my masa softer, fluffier & greasier. What else could you ask for?

I went vegetarian when I was 12 and all I knew how to make was Hamburger Helper with fake beef and macaroni and cheese LOL. 😭😝 Almost 20 years later and I've grown so much! It is almost a necessity if you went to not spend $1000000 on vegan convenience Foods LOL. 😂 I absolutely love seeing veganized traditional Regional food! Thank you so much for sharing with us. 💜
