Receta Tamale Pie
This is one of my comfort foods for a cold winter day. This is a mildly spicy dish. If you are not into a little heat, or are serving this to kids, you may want to reduce the amount of ground peppers and eliminate the crushed red pepper in the cornmeal topping.

Direcciones
- Preheat the oven to 350 deg F.
- Filling:
- In a skillet large enough to hold all of the ingredients down to the topping, mix the ground beef, onion, jalapeño peppers, and garlic. Cook over medium heat until the beef is browned, about 4-5 minutes. Pour off any excess grease.
- Add the corn, tomato sauce, green chilies, and all of the spices to the skillet with the cooked beef and mix thoroughly.
- Simmer for another 4-5 minutes until any liquid is almost evaporated and the beef mixture is very thick.
- Place the cooked filling into a greased 3-4 quart casserole or baking dish.
- Topping:
- In a 2 quart sauce pan slowly mix the cornmeal into one cup of beef broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
- When all of the cornmeal is well mixed, place the pan over medium heat, add the remaining two cups of beef broth and cook until a thick mush is formed.
- Evenly cover the filling with the mush and bake uncovered for 40 minutes.
- Spread the cheese over the browned topping and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
