These are so good with their spices and sauce. I like to serve them with corn bread.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
2 cups self-rising cornmeal
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic salt
3 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups water
1 (46 ounce) can tomato juice
8 ounces tomato sauce
1 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Combine the first 8 ingredients together, gradually adding in water.
2. In a large pot, bring the tomato juice, sauce, water, sugar and salt to a boil.
3. Form the tamale mixture into walnut-size balls and drop into boiling juice.
4. Boil softly for 30 minutes.
5. NOTE: The longer this cooks the more flavorful it becomes.
