Someone brought it to our cluster meeting last night, and I think my family would like it. I don't have the cookbook that it appeared in, and I couldn't find it anywhere here or through Google. Can anyone hook me up with the recipe?

Nevermind....I found it!
 
Would you mind sharing where you found it, or post the recipe itself? I remember seeing it somewhere, too, but have no idea where!

Thanks!

Cook’s Tip: Mild or Hot salsa can be substituted for medium salsa.

Cook’s Tip: Sherbet with Cinnamon Chips would be a perfect desert. To make Cinnamon Chips, lightly spray 4 (7-inch) flour tortillas with water using the Kitchen Spritzer. Sprinkle with combined 1 tablespoon sugar and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon. Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges using Pizza Cutter. Bake on flat Baking Stone at 400 F for 8-10 minutes. Cool completely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ingredients do I need to make a Tamale Round-About?

To make a Tamale Round-About, you will need masa harina, chicken or vegetable broth, your choice of filling (such as shredded chicken, cheese, or vegetables), corn husks, and spices like cumin and chili powder. Optional toppings include salsa, sour cream, and avocado.

How do I prepare the corn husks for the Tamale Round-About?

Start by soaking the corn husks in warm water for about 30 minutes to soften them. This will make them easier to work with when wrapping your tamales. After soaking, drain the husks and pat them dry before using.

What is the best way to assemble the Tamale Round-About?

To assemble the Tamale Round-About, spread a layer of masa dough onto the center of a corn husk, leaving space at the edges. Add a spoonful of your chosen filling in the middle, then fold the sides of the husk over the filling and roll it up tightly. Secure the ends with kitchen twine or by tucking them under.

How long do I need to steam the Tamale Round-About?

Steam the Tamale Round-About for about 1 to 1.5 hours. Make sure to check the water level in the steamer periodically to prevent it from drying out. The tamales are done when the masa easily separates from the husk.

Can I make Tamale Round-Abouts ahead of time?

Yes, you can make Tamale Round-Abouts ahead of time. After assembling, you can freeze them before steaming. When ready to cook, steam them directly from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
