Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
- 1 large Egg
- 0.33 cup Hot water
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and ginger, frying until fragrant for about 1 minute.
Stir in the cumin seeds, followed by the chopped onion, and cook until the onion turns golden.
Add the ground beef and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until browned and cooked through.
Mix in coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, and pepper.
Cook the beef mixture for another 5 minutes, ensuring the spices are well incorporated.
Remove from heat and stir in fresh cilantro. Allow the filling to cool while preparing the dough.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and psyllium husk powder.
Beat the egg and add it to the flour mixture, stirring to combine.
Gradually add hot water, stirring until a dough forms. The dough should be pliable but not sticky.
Divide the dough into 12 equal parts and roll each portion into a ball.
Press or roll each ball into a thin circle between two sheets of parchment paper.
Place a tablespoon of the beef filling onto one half of each dough circle.
Fold the other half over the filling, sealing the edges by pressing with a fork.
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and place samosas on a lined baking sheet.
Bake the samosas for 20 minutes or until the dough turns golden and crispy.
Serve warm with your favorite low-carb sauce or chutney.
