Ingredients
- 1 pound (480 g) ground beef
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 15 oz (450 ml) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 14½ oz (435 ml) diced tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained
- 11 oz (330 ml) can whole kernel corn, drained
- 10 oz (300 ml) enchilada sauce
- 2 fresh green onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 8 ½ oz (255 ml) cornbread-muffin mix
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese

Method
Step 1
In a large nonstick skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Drain. Stir in ground cumin, salt, chili powder, and black pepper.
Step 2
Transfer the spiced meat mixture to a 4-quart (4 L) slow cooker. Add drained black beans, tomatoes, corn, enchilada sauce, chopped green onions, and cilantro. Mix well.
Step 3
Cover the pot and cook on low-heat setting for 6-8 hours.
Step 4
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine muffin mix and beaten eggs. Mix well. Open the lid and spoon the egg mixture over the beef mixture. Cover and cook for a further 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow staying for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Remove cooked tamale pie from the slow cooker and transfer to a serving plate. Serve with sour cream and chopped fresh cilantro.
