Mexico, a country in North America, is not only famous for its Cowboys. Instead, it has a variety of traditional and famous culinaries. One of them is "Tamale". A cuisine that dates back to the ancient Aztecs and Mayans.
Its a corn based dish made from corn starch dough and added with fruits, vegetables, or meat as filings. The dough is then wrapped in banana or corn leaves and steamed. Tamale is so delicious and healthy because it doesn't go through the frying process.
