Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 100 grams peas, frozen
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 20 sheets spring roll wrappers or samosa pastry
- water, for sealing the pastry
- 500 milliliters vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the onions and cook for another minute, stirring frequently.
Increase the heat to medium-high, then add the ground beef. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, for about 8-10 minutes.
Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the spices to release their aromas.
Add the frozen peas to the mixture and cook for another 3 minutes until they are heated through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh cilantro. Allow the filling to cool for about 10 minutes.
Lay a spring roll wrapper or a sheet of samosa pastry on a clean surface. Place a spoonful of the beef filling into one corner of the pastry, fold over to create a triangle, and continue folding in triangles until you reach the end of the strip.
Seal the edge with a little water. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a deep frying pan, heat 500 milliliters of vegetable oil over medium heat. Test the oil temperature by dropping a small piece of pastry into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.
Carefully add a few samosas to the oil at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the samosas from the oil, and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the beef samosas hot with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.
