Use babel:

#+name: my-input
| el | value      | expected |
|----+------------+----------|
| 5  | '(5 5 5 5) | 4        |
| ...etc...                  |

#+begin_src elisp :var input=my-input :results table
;; Code that does the calculations in your tblfm line
;; `input' is a variable holding your input table
#+end_src
