Where these numbers come from. This is an estimate for a typical home-cooked Oaxacan Tamal in Mole Negro, not a laboratory measurement. A restaurant version, or one cooked with more oil, will be higher. Nobody has reviewed it against a licensed nutrition database. Cooking changes food, and the same dish varies from kitchen to kitchen.

What's in it

corn masa, lard, chicken, mole negro (chillies, chocolate, sesame, nuts), banana leaf. Steamed.
