The oja de maiz (corn leaf) is used to give the tamal its shape and hold it together while it is cooking. (Tamales is plural; tamal is singular; tamale does not exist in Spanish.) Corn leaves are used in the state of Puebla, but in the state of Oaxaca, they use green banana leaves. Those leaves serve the same purpose.
