The green chilies are roasted and then placed in a plastic bag to cool, peeled, seeds removed, and cut into strips. In a container of approximately 9 liters where you can put your hands, beat the lard until creamy and without lumps. Butter and lard are added and beaten until well combined. Zucchinis are blended with evaporated milk. To the already beaten lard and butter, add the corn dough, fresh cheese, Chihuahua cheese, blended zucchini, sugar, and salt, and beat everything until all ingredients are well combined. In the Tamal leaves, place a large ladle of the prepared dough and a strip of green chili, wrap them up and place them in a steamer pot, one after another around the pot in a slightly inclined vertical position.
