Cabbage Tamales
From: rlt11 @ allrecipes.com/recipe/220872/cabbage-tamales/
"These are a combo of German and Mexican food that are very good. You can cook these in a pressure cooker, slow cooker, or oven, as well as prepare them to freeze and fix at a later time."
Prep time: 35 min
Cook time: 1 hour
Total time: 1 hr, 35 min
Makes: 8 servings
Ingredients:
8 cabbage leaves
1 pound ground beef
1 1/2 cups uncooked white rice
2 (6.5 ounce) cans tomato sauce
3 teaspoons New Mexico red chile powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chopped onion
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
Directions:
Freeze the cabbage leaves or blanch them for about 3 minutes in a large pot of boiling water to soften.
Place the ground beef, rice, tomato sauce, chile powder, garlic, onion, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
Mix with your hands until combined.
Divide the meat mixture into 8 portions and place the meat on the softened cabbage leaves.
Roll the leaves up to form logs and tuck the edges under the logs.
Place the tamales into a pressure cooker or slow cooker.
Pour diced tomatoes with green chiles over tamales.
To cook tamales in a pressure cooker:
Seal the lid of the pressure cooker and bring it up to full pressure.
Reduce the heat to low, maintaining full pressure, and cook for 1 hour.
Use the quick-release function or allow the pressure to reduce naturally.
To cook tamales in a slow cooker:
Place the lid on the slow cooker and set it on High.
Cook the tamales for 4 hours.
Cook's Notes:
I also make this in the morning and bake it in the evening. I put them into a 9x13-inch baking dish and bake them for 2 hours, topped with tomatoes and green chiles and covered with foil, at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). The tamales can be frozen for up to three months.
If you can't find canned tomatoes with green chiles and garlic, use 2 cans of diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup canned chopped green chiles, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic.
Easy Cleanup
Try using a liner in your slow cooker for easier cleanup.
