Preparation
Rinse corn husks and remove silk. Cover husks with warm water; let stand at least 2 hours until softened.
In food processor or blender, place 1/2 cup almonds. Cover and process until finely ground; set aside. In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic in oil about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion is tender. Stir in tomato sauce, paprika, red chile and red pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in ground almonds.
In medium bowl, mix 1/2 cup of the sauce, the turkey, slivered almonds, raisins, bell pepper and green chiles. Set aside. Reserve remaining sauce.
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 10-inch springform pan. In large bowl, beat all dough ingredients with electric mixer on low speed, scraping bowl constantly, until well blended. Beat on medium speed 1 minute.
Drain corn husks; pat dry. Line pan with corn husks, extending pointed ends of husks over side of pan. Spread half of the dough over husks on bottom of pan; cover with turkey mixture. Spread remaining dough over turkey mixture up to edge of pan. Cover top of pan with piece of heavy-duty foil, 15 inches long, shaping down over side of pan (pointed ends of corn husks will bend down against outside of pan).
Bake about 1 1/2 hours or until dough is set and slightly dry. Carefully remove side of pan. Serve tamale pie with remaining warm sauce and sour cream.
