Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 large garlic cloves, minced
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium carrot, grated
- 2 cups coconut flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup water
- 0.25 cup coconut milk
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking apart the beef with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink.
Stir in the grated ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring the spices are well incorporated.
Mix in the grated carrot and cook for another 5 minutes until the carrot is tender. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour and tapioca flour.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, and coconut milk until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten into a circle about 5 inches in diameter.
Place 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center of each dough circle.
Fold the dough over the filling to create a semi-circle, pressing the edges to seal.
Carefully transfer the samosas to the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops with the remaining coconut oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the samosas are golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
