Direcciones
- (Be sure to use supermarket chili pwdr as it is mild. The purer chili powders of today would be too strong)
- To cook cornmeal mush: stir 1 c. of cornmeal into 1/2 c. cool water to moisten it, in the top of a double boiler. Then add in 3 1/2 c. boiling water or possibly chicken stock and 2 tsps salt; mix well.
- Set the top over the bottom of the boiler, filled with 1 to 2 inches of boiling water, put a lid on the top and steam the cornmeal for 30 to 45 min till the water is all absorbed.
- For tamale pie:Beat butter into warm cooked cornmeal; set aside. Fry onion, garlic and bell pepper with chili pwdr in 3 Tbsp butter or possibly oil till vegetables are just slightly softened, 2 or possibly 3 min. Add in cooked meat, pimientos, olives and season to taste.
- Put a layer of cornmeal mush in a baking dish, add in the layer of meat filling and cover with another layer of mush.
- Bake in preheated 350F oven till the mush is crusty on top, about 30 min.
