Tamale Pie image

A fairly easy casserole dish. There used to be a boxed version of this in the store, so I tried to figure out what was in it, and this is what I came up with.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (15 1/4 ounce) can corn kernels, drained
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon oregano, crushed
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet over medium high heat, brown the ground beef and onion, adding garlic during the last half of browning, so it doesn't burn.
  • Drain the fat and return meat to skillet.
  • Add the tomato sauce, drained corn, seasonings, and 1 cup of water.
  • Simmer on low for 10 minutes.
  • Pour mixture into a 2 quart baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the corn meal evenly over the beef mixture.
  • Carefully pour in 1 cup water over a spoon back, so as not to disturb the corn meal.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
