You may not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes hot tamales new orleans style but it is feasible. It is pivotal to not eat hot tamales new orleans style or other high calorie misc every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself rich food one meal per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1600 calories per day, and then one day, I eat whatever I want – within reason of course.

I have been eating this way for the last 2 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have simply been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day per week.

I also find it helps to have professional support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Hot Tamales New Orleans Style

Posted by Kevin Taylor, the BBQGURU, at recipegoldmine.com May 4, 2001

Source: Just received this one from a buddy in Louisiana.

In New Orleans they sell tamales from pushcarts on the street corners. This is the recipe….very simple! Enjoy!!

1 pound ground beef
3 tablespoons cornmeal
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 large onion, minced
Yellow cornmeal

There are 2 sets of directions…….using the paper wrappers and using the corn husks. This recipe is ideal for any leftover beef or pork.

For paper wrappers

1. Put all ingredients except the final 3 cups of cornmeal into a food processor and mix together very well.

2. With a tablespoon, scoop out the mixture and roll it out into a cigar shape. Then roll it through the yellow cornmeal to stick a thick layer of meal onto the meat mixture.

Soak paper tamale wrappers in warm water. Put each cornmeal-coated "cigar" onto a paper and roll it up, folding in the ends of the papers to completely enclose the tamale.

Put the tamales on their sides in a large saucepan or Dutch oven, alternating direction of layers. Pour water enough to cover all the tamales, plus about an inch. Place on medium fire until the water boils. Lower heat to maintain a simmer and cook, with cover on, for an hour and a half to two hours.

For corn husks

Cook whatever meat you are using. If ground beef, brown it, if your meat is leftover, it is already cooked.

Follow Step 1. directions above for meat preparation.

Soak 20 corn husks in water for 45-60 minutes.

Follow Step 2. directions above.

After tamales are stuffed and wrapped in the corn husks, you need to steam them. DO NOT BOIL!

Steam them with the "narrow" end pointing down for 1 1/2 hours.

Let cool. Eat!
