Thanks for such a great recipe. I have 3 questions?

I am used to using no oil in my frying or spraying the pan and wiping off all but a thin layer to fry onions etc. Would this be OK to do? I’m vegan and following an extremely low fat physician monitored diet.

I traditionally wrap my tortillas. I learned to do this from my Abuella. Is it OK to wrap your tamales this way?

If I’m out of pinto beans can I use black beans?

I have to try making these! I’ve never really thought of making tamales actually but I should get on it before the last of the corn for the season (although I might be too late) already.

Thailand is on my bucket list. I want to stay at the Four Season tents (no rowdy kids there, I expect!) and go riding on elephants. Thailand is pretty cheap as a destination, but of course I pick the most expensive resort possible that I want to go to. classic.

That is too funny – I bought a steamer to make pork buns too and well, yeah, that just hasn’t happened yet! Now I can make your tamales! 😀
