- 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil (for dough)
- 1 cup Cauliflower (riced and steamed)
- 0.5 cups Frozen spinach (thawed and squeezed dry)
- 0.25 cups Green peas (optional, for slightly higher carbs)
- 0.25 cup Onion (diced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (minced)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 0.25 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt (for filling)
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil (for filling)
- (enough for shallow frying) Coconut oil or ghee (for frying)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
Add warm water and avocado oil to the flour mixture and knead into a smooth dough. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
For the filling, heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Sauté the diced onions, minced garlic, and ginger until fragrant and translucent.
Add ground cumin, coriander, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt to the skillet, stirring for 1-2 minutes.
Mix in the steamed riced cauliflower, thawed spinach, and green peas (if using). Cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes and set it aside to cool.
Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Place each ball between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a thin circle.
Cut each circle into two halves. Fold each half into a cone shape, sealing the edges with water.
Fill each cone with 1-2 tablespoons of the cooled vegetable filling. Seal the open edge of the cone, ensuring it is well-closed.
Heat coconut oil or ghee in a skillet over medium heat and shallow fry the samosas until golden brown on all sides. Alternatively, you can air fry them at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Serve the keto veggie samosas hot with mint chutney or a low-carb dipping sauce.
