Preparation

Preparation Instructions

1. Prepare the Mushroom and Spinach Filling

In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

2. Make the Avocado Lime Cilantro Puree

In a food processor, combine avocado, lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

3. Prepare the Tamales

In a large bowl, mix the corn masa with water according to package instructions until a soft dough forms. Divide the masa into equal portions. Take a piece of masa and flatten it in your hand, place a spoonful of the mushroom and spinach filling in the center, and top it with crumbled goat cheese. Fold the masa over the filling to form a tamal.

4. Steam the Tamales

Place the tamales upright in a steamer basket lined with corn husks or parchment paper. Cover with a wet cloth and steam for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the masa is firm and fully cooked.

5. Serve

Once cooked, remove tamales from the steamer. Serve warm, topped with pumpkin mole sauce, crema fresca, toasted pumpkin seeds, and a dollop of avocado lime cilantro puree.
