- 250 grams Lean ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon, minced Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 2 finely chopped Green chilies
- 0.5 cup Green peas
- 0.5 cup, chopped Fresh coriander leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 small, boiled and diced Potato
- 12 sheets Phyllo pastry sheets

- 1 beaten Egg white
Instructions
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn translucent.
Add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir for a minute until fragrant.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, and red chili powder to the pan, stirring continuously for another minute.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in the green chilis, green peas, potatoes, and chopped fresh coriander. Season with black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the mixture from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Lay one phyllo pastry sheet on a clean work surface. Brush lightly with olive oil and fold in half lengthwise.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the meat mixture on one end of the strip and fold into a triangle, repeating the triangular fold until the end of the strip is reached. Seal the edge with a small amount of water and press firmly.
Repeat with the remaining mixture and phyllo sheets.
Arrange the filled samosas on the prepared baking tray and brush lightly with the beaten egg white.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden and crispy.
Allow the samosas to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
