Tamale Pie with Fresh Tomato and Corn

This vibrant tamale pie with fresh tomato and corn is a spectacular high-protein meal that brings a taste of the Americas to your kitchen. By searing minced beef and spicy chorizo together in a hot frying pan, you create a deeply savoury base that is beautifully balanced by the acidity of fresh beefsteak tomatoes. The dish is finished with a golden, homemade cornbread crust that soaks up all the delicious juices while providing a satisfying, cake-like texture.

Ideal for a comforting midweek supper, this one-pan recipe is surprisingly simple to assemble and works perfectly for those looking for a nutrient-dense, filling dish. The combination of fresh corn kernels and melted cheddar offers a wonderful sweetness and richness. Serve it straight from the pan with a dollop of cool soured cream for a crowd-pleasing dinner that feels both wholesome and indulgent.

  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons cumin

  • 1 large onion, grated on a box grater, divided

  • 1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

  • 2 large beefsteak tomatoes (about 900g ), cut into 1/2" cubes

  • 475ml corn kernels (preferably fresh

  • from about 3 ears of corn), divided

Preheat oven to 232°C. Heat an 8" cast-iron skillet over high. Pat chorizo and beef dry with paper towels, then press into an even layer in bottom of hot skillet with a spatula. Cook, undisturbed, until a brown crust begins to form on the bottom, about 6 minutes. Turn, break into pieces, and continue to cook until cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add tomato paste, cumin, half of grated onion, half of jalapeño, and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and well combined, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in tomatoes, 350g corn, and 350ml cheese.

Whisk eggs, butter, 80ml soured cream, and remaining onion in a medium bowl. Whisk cornmeal, baking powder, and remaining 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and stir to combine, then stir in 30g cheese and remaining 120ml corn.

Dollop cornbread batter over meat mixture, then smooth into an even layer. Top with remaining jalapeños and 30g cheese.

Bake cornbread until golden brown, 15–18 minutes. Serve with soured cream alongside.
