Tamal de olla

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Panamanian cuisine, tamal de olla (pronounced [taˈmal de ˈoʝa]), which is Spanish for "tamale of the pot/pan," is best described as a Panamanian-style tamale that fills the baking pan in which it is cooked, and is not wrapped in a banana or plantain leaf. The ingredients include pork or chicken cooked with corn-stuffed cornmeal (with "maiz nuevo"), vegetables (onion, tomato, and bell pepper), olives, and raisins. Some also add chopped prunes.
