Comment préparer Real Traditional Tamales

Prepare the masa: In a large bowl, combine 2 pounds masa harina, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup lard or vegetable shortening. Gradually add 3 cups of warm water, mixing until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms.
Prepare the filling: Combine 1 pound ground pork (or your choice of filling), 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and salt to taste in a large bowl. Sauté until cooked and browned.
Assemble the tamales: Spread a thin layer of masa on a corn husk, leaving about an inch of space at the top. Add about 2 tablespoons of filling to the center of the masa. Fold the sides of the husk inward, then roll the tamale up tightly.
Steam the tamales: Place the assembled tamales in a steamer basket, seam-side down. Add enough water to the steamer pot to reach the bottom of the basket. Steam for 2-3 hours, or until the masa is firm and easily peels from the husk.
Serve immediately and enjoy! Pair with your favorite salsas and toppings.
