Here is another of Wyona's Hertwig's delicious adaptations of ethnic yumminess -- corn tamales. I discovered that this recipe can be made without any oil (just sauté with a little water) and if you don't have fresh tomatoes on hand, 3/4 C. of a favourite tomato salsa can make up for the missing tomatoes. This dish pairs nicely with some baked beans and a cabbage salad.
(I also included a great little Youtube video of the making of more 'traditional' tamales-- but gluten-free and vegan). Enjoy!
