Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Divide the dough into 12 equal balls.
Roll each dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper into small circles.
Place about a teaspoon of the prepared onion filling in each circle.
Fold the dough over the filling to form a semi-circle, sealing the edges by pressing them gently.
Place the mini samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush the tops with olive oil for a crispier texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
