Category: Breakfast, Lunch/Snacks

 Ingredients List

  • 1 cup minus 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup yogurt or milk
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • big pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp ajwain seeds
  • ****************************************
  • Filling (enough for 16 samosas):
  • 3 potatoes, diced into small cubes
  • 1/2 to 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 tsp canola oil
  • 1/2 tsp cumin-coriander powder
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • salt to taste

 Directions

::::::::::: For the Dough :::::::::::
Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix together and then knead for 5 minutes. Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes. You can put this in the fridge but let it rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.

::::::::::: Filling :::::::::::
Boil the potatoes in water until soft. Drain. Heat the oil and add the cumin-coriander powder, cayenne and salt. Fry for about 1 minute. Add the frozen peas and cook until defrosted. Add the potatoes and cook for another 5 minutes. Allow to come to room temperature.

::::::::::: Making the samosas :::::::::::
Pre-heat oven to 425F

Fill a small bowl with some water.

Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Take one piece, roll into a circle 1/8' thick, 7' wide. Cut into 2 semi circles. Place the semi-circle so the straight side is facing away from you. Put about a tablespoon of filling in the centre of the semi-circle. Moisten the edges with a little bit of water. Fold the left corner over the filling in a triangular motion. Repeat with the right corner. Seal the edges pressing with a fork. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Bake for 15 minutes. Turn samosas over. Reduce temperature to 375F and bake for 10 more minutes. Enjoy!
