I made tamales today. I’ve always wanted to make them so today I finally got all the stuff and did it. I got corn husks and already made masa at the Mexican supermarket near us. I made a mistake with the masa and bought tortilla masa. I didn’t even look as I didn’t know they made tortilla masa. I had to go back to get the tamale masa. I bought carnitas for the filling.
It was pretty easy to make them but it’s a little time consuming. It took about 20 minutes or so to make 15. After you make them you have to steam them for close to 2 hours. I must say they were pretty darn good. Next time I would use more filling. This picture isn’t very good but it’s the only one I took. You get the idea.
