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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
