Scramble fry the beef and garlic in a large non-stick skillet till well browned. Drain then add the tomatoes and the chilli powder. Mix and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until thickened. Should be like thick spaghetti sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour mixture into a 10 inche deep dish pie plate.
Topping:
Stir the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and spices together in a bowl. Mix well. Add the Parmesan cheese and toss. Beat the egg, buttermilk, oil and a few dashed of hot sauce together in a separate bowl. Add the egg mixture to the dry stuff. Stir until just moistened. Spread the cornmeal mixture evenly over the meat. Bake in a 375 degree F. oven for 30 minutes or until the topping is golden.
Serve with vegetable platter and sour cream and salsa for dipping.
NOTE: I usually use plain old milk instead of buttermilk or sour milk and there has not been a really noticeable difference in the outcome.
