Samosa Recipe

Fried, Potato-Filled Dough Pockets

To make the samosa filling, heat in a skillet: 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil pinch hing 1/2 teaspoon cumin/mustard/sesame seed mixture When the seeds pop, add: 1 medium onion, finely chopped 1 Tablespoon fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), chopped Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, then add: 1/2 Tablespoon amchur (mango) powder, or 1 Tablespoon lemon juice 1 teaspoon cumin/coriander powder 1/2 teaspoon salt pinch hot red pepper powder Sauté a few minutes, then add: 3 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled, and cut into very small pieces 1/4 cup frozen peas (opt.) Mix well and sauté just until heated through, them remove from heat and set aside. To make the samosa dough, mix in a bowl: 2 cups white flour 2 1/2 Tablespoons vegetable oil 1 1/2 Tablespoons rice flour 1/2 teaspoon salt Add water gradually (about 1/4 cups) until the dough holds together, and knead well. Roll into a ball and cover with a moist cloth. Let rest about 20 minutes. To assemble the samosas, break off 1 1/2"-2" pieces of the dough, and roll out into 6"-8" diameter circles. Cut each circle in half. Fold each half-circle in thirds to make a pie-wedge shape. Seal the point by pressing or pinching. Pick up the dough, and seal the outside edge by pinching to form a cone. Fill the cone two-thirds with potato mixture. Moisten the lip of the cone with a little milk or water, and pinch to seal. Press the samosa between your palms to remove air pockets. Flute the top edge and cover with a moist cloth until ready to fry. To cook samosa, deep fry until browned, turning twice; drain. Serve with Tamarind-Date Chutney.

pyari this is how i make mine

i love chicken samosa... once i have chicken is tiny cubes i place it in the pan and start throwing things in it.

namak
garlic powder -
ginger powder
zera
anar dana i love this gives khata khata taste
some crushed peppers
peppers
spring onions -just give a nice flavor


literally NO oil in this mix... frying samosas is giong to do enough damage to us so why put oil where we dont need it :~)

sorry i hate measuring things so i literally dump it in as much as i want.. shukar hai so far ihavent messed anything up thati cant fix

for vegetarian one... i like to do something besides plan Alo...

Add
alo
chane ke daal
onion
carrots
matar

this will do all rainbow color and will taste good as well...

i would only fry these with little crushed pepers, black peppers and salt...

cant go wrong with both of those :~)

Nia khan, your recipe sounds nice. Please could you write down the method of cooking for me please, for vegetable samosas. I need to make about 3o samosas as there are 30 pieces of filo pastry in 1 pack and i want to use all of pastry. Firstly, i'll fry 1 large onion, then do you put ginger/garlic in veg samosas? Also do you boil potatoes separately? Do you add any dhaniya/zeera powder for veg samosas? Sorry for all questions but i need an exact recipe with exact quantities of ingredients
