Bon A Petite!
Tamale Pie
1 onion, chopped
1 pound ground beef
1 bell pepper, diced
Dash of pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
Sauté onion, ground beef and bell pepper until beef loses red color and onion is clear. Drain well and add the corn and tomato sauce. Simmer until thick. Pour into an 11 x 7-inch or 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
Masa Topping
1 cup Masa HarinaŽ
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup milk
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir just until blended. Spoon topping in large dollops over the filling. Bake at 400 degrees F for about 45 to 55 minutes, or until filling is bubbly in the center and topping is well browned.
During the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking, you can sprinkle lots of shredded cheese (Monterey jack or Cheddar) over the top and let the cheese melt as the Tamale Pie finishes baking.
