Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon, grated Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 100 grams Frozen peas
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 20 small sheets Spring roll wrappers
- Cooking spray
- 1 beaten (for sealing edges) Egg
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef to the pan, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
Stir in ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the spices coat the beef evenly.
Add frozen peas and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the peas are heated through.
Stir in chopped cilantro and remove the pan from heat. Allow the beef mixture to cool slightly.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface, keeping the rest covered to prevent them from drying out.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the beef mixture on one end of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper into a triangular shape, ensuring the filling is fully enclosed. Brush a little beaten egg on the edges to seal them.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Arrange the prepared samosas on the lined baking sheet. Lightly spray them with cooking spray for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and crisp.
Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.
