Ingredients
- 250 grams Whole wheat flour
- 120 milliliters Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 100 grams Green peas
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 pieces Chopped green chilies
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 500 milliliters Oil for frying
Instructions
Begin by boiling the potatoes until they are soft. Once cooked, peel and mash them, then set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and carom seeds. Add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and mix well.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture and knead into a firm dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes.
For the filling, heat a pan and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
Add the chopped green chilies and grated ginger, sauté for a minute.
Fold in the green peas and cook them until they become tender.
Add mashed potatoes, garam masala, coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.
Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Allow the filling to cool.
Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten into an oval shape, approximately 6 inches long.
Cut the oval in half to form two semi-circular shapes.
Take one semi-circle, moisten the straight edge with water, and fold it into a cone. Press the seam to seal well.
Fill the cone with approximately 1.5 to 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture.
Moisten the edges of the cone and press together to seal the samosa. Ensure there are no open seams. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
In a deep frying pan, heat oil for frying. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
Carefully add the samosas to the oil, frying them in batches until they are golden brown and crispy. Turn occasionally to cook evenly.
Remove the samosas from the oil and drain on a paper towel.
Serve hot with your favorite chutney or yogurt dip.
