Ingredients

16 portions

Select all ingredients

5 cups whole kernel corn, natural (save the leaves)
1 cup cottage cheese, LALA®
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
11/4 cups butter, LALA®, melted
1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Add the corn kernels into the processor and grind slightly. Mix the ground corn with the flour and cottage cheese perfectly.

Beat the butter with the sugar until lightly sponge.

Add the butter to the corn mixture and move until integrated; add the baking powder and salt.

Place two or three tablespoons of the mixture on each corn leaf and close. You can tie the corn with a strip of the leaf to prevent them from opening.

Heat the water in the steamer, accommodate the tamales standing one by one. Cover perfectly and cook for about 1 hour. Uncover the steamer after time and check if they are already cooked. The blade should peel off alone.
