Improvised Mole Tamales
During this quarantine, I had a terrible craving for tamales and wanted to order corn husks or banana leaves online to make them, but strangely, they weren't available on the supermarket's website. So, I decided to make them with aluminum foil and, in strict terms, I made them lacto-vegetarian by adding a slice of cheese along with the mole, and they turned out fantastic.

Take 1 1/2 cups of tortilla flour (Maseca or Minsa) and add salt, 1/4 cup of corn oil (we don't eat pork at home, so lard is completely out), add a teaspoon of baking powder, and enough water to make a manageable dough.

Spread a bit of dough in a rectangular shape on a piece of aluminum foil, add mole sauce (I bought a liquid mole with chocolate), a small slice of cheese, and fold the foil from one side to the other, and from top to bottom, then place them in a steamer. With these quantities, I made 9 tamales. Steam them for 1 hour. Delicious.
