A tamal is made of dough so the steaming is done so the dough isn't raw, I don't think it's comparable with a burrito which is some sort of taco made of fluor tortilla

There are some tamales that aren't made of dough though and still called tamales, it's usually meats where I live but I'm sure it's different in other areas
