Start by preparing the samosa dough. In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot powder, and salt.
Add melted coconut oil and an egg to the flour mixture. Mix until a firm dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
While the dough chills, prepare the filling. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger to the beef. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Stir in cumin seeds, coriander powder, garam masala, and turmeric powder. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the spices are aromatic.
Add the broth to the mixture, stirring to combine. Allow it to simmer until the mixture is almost dry but still moist, about 4-5 minutes.
Mix in the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Adjust seasoning with salt to taste.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into 12 equal portions.
Roll each portion into a ball, then press between pieces of parchment paper or plastic wrap to flatten into a thin round disc.
Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each disc, fold over, and seal the edges by pressing gently to form a half-moon shape.
Arrange samosas on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to meld and enjoy your Paleo Cocktail Samosas warm.
