Prepare the masa dough by mixing masa harina with lard and broth until light and fluffy.




Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan and sauté the filling ingredients until fragrant.



Spread a layer of masa onto a softened corn husk, add the filling, and fold the husk securely.



Arrange the tamales in a steamer pot and steam for 30 minutes until the dough is firm and pulls away from the husk.
