Chicken Mole with Corundas

I am planning on making a great Mexican dish for my Fiance tomarrow and since I am Italian, I have no idea how to cook Mexican food. I recently found A chicken Mole recipe I intend to use but I also want to make Corundas that go WITH the Mole. Nothting goes in the Corundas I don't think, you just use them with the chicken Mole and the Mole sauce. I heard something about it using banana leaves, but like I said, I don't know. If you could help me I'd greatly appreciate it. Gracias!

Having always just used soft tortillas with mole, I wasn't sure what corundas were -- but they're a type of regional tamale. If you're looking for recipes, I found several doing a Google search. But if you're looking for supplies -- any large ethnic grocery store should have corn husks (one of the options for wrapping corundas), and all the Hispanic grocers where I live stock frozen banana leaves.

If you're going to use banana leaves, the frozen ones are easier to work with -- you don't have to scald them or do any other prep work -- just thaw and wrap.

Good luck with the mole. What kind of mole are you making? Poblano? Coloradito? Amarillo? Rojo? There are so many.
