• Tamale sauce:In a medium pot fully combine chili powder, vegetable oil and flour and whisk until smooth over medium heat.Add beef stock, tomato paste and spices and continue stirring over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
• Making the Casserole:Place about 1 cup of the tamale sauce in a 9×13 baking pan. I use this baking pan as I like that is has easy grab handles. Remove corn husks from tamales and discard. Place tamales in the baking pan. I ended up using eleven tamales and saved the last one for a snack by itself. Wink Wink.Pour remaining sauce on top of tamales. It may look like too much sauce but it will be just perfect!Cover evenly with freshly grated cheese and sprinkle with green onions and cilantro.

MY FAVORITE CORN CHIP TAMALE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• 1. Remove paper from tamales and place in small baking dish, along with liquid from can. Slice each tamale into 3 - 4 pieces. Sprinkle with half of the chopped green onion.
• 2. Spread chili with beans over the tamales. Sprinkle with rest of green onions. Sprinkle with plenty of cheese!
• 3. Put corn chips in a baggie, and with hands or rolling pin, crush and spread over cheese to cover. *You can put the cheese on top of the corn chips, but I like the cheese to melt directly onto the beans.
