First, let's gather our ingredients. You'll need beef, corn husks, masa harina, green chilies, garlic, and spices like cumin and chili powder.

Start by marinating the beef in a mixture of spices and lime juice. This will give it a delicious tangy flavor that pairs perfectly with the green sauce.

While the beef is marinating, soak the corn husks in warm water. This will make them pliable and easier to work with when assembling the tamales.

Next, prepare the green sauce by blending green chilies, garlic, and spices with a bit of water. This will be the flavorful base for our tamales.

Now it's time to assemble the tamales. Spread a thin layer of masa harina on a corn husk, add a spoonful of marinated beef, and top with a spoonful of green sauce.

7.

Roll the corn husk tightly, tucking in the ends to create a neat package. Repeat until all the ingredients are used up.

Steam the tamales for about an hour, until the masa is cooked and the beef is tender. The aroma of the green sauce and spices will fill your kitchen!
