- 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Ghee
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Cauliflower, grated
- 0.5 cup Green peas, boiled

- (as needed) Vegetable oil or ghee, for frying
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt.
Add warm water gradually and knead to form a smooth dough. Cover and set aside.
Heat ghee in a pan over medium heat. Add cumin, coriander, turmeric, red chili powder, and ginger garlic paste. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add grated cauliflower and boiled peas to the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes until the mixture is tender.
Stir in crumbled paneer and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add chopped cilantro and lemon juice. Mix well and remove from heat. Allow filling to cool.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) or prepare oil/ghee for frying.
Divide the dough into small balls and roll each ball into a thin oval shape between sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Cut each oval into halves. Take one half and form a cone by folding and sealing the edges with a bit of water.
Fill the cone with the prepared filling and seal the open side by pressing gently.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
If shallow frying, heat oil or ghee in a pan and fry samosas until golden brown. Alternatively, bake samosas in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden and crisp.
Serve warm with desired chutneys or dips.
