This is my first try at making samosa and I just lightly seasoned my filling. I am not able to take really spicy foods so I made according to my liking.
I am glad they turned out well all the fillings are intact I managed to seal the samosas properly. :)
Filling recipe
2 russet potatoes skin removed n boiled
Frozen green peas 3/4 cup
Some water
1 small onion diced
Ground cumin 1 teaspoon
Turmeric powder 1 teaspoon
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Some oil
Method
Boil the potatoes till cooked
Drain water
Remove and cut into small cubes ( my photo shows cubes a bit too large please dice smaller)
Microwave the green peas with some water enough to cover the peas
Cook for 3 minutes. Drain away the water
Heat some oil in a large pan and fry onions for about 2 minutes stirring occasionally
Add in the potatoes and cumin, salt and turmeric powder
Stir fry so that the colours evenly coated the potatoes
Add in green peas and mix well
Set aside and cool about half an hour
Making samosa
Popiah skin large size cut into thirds
1 egg beaten to seal the samosa
Oil for frying
Wrap the fillings in the popiah skin and seal so that the fillings won't drop out
Use the same large saucepan and fill enough oil so that the samosas can be covered
Lower the temperature when a lot of bubbles form on base of pan
Put in samosas about 7 pcs and fry till one side is brownish
Turn over and fry till other side is brownish
Drain oil on paper towels
When samosas are cooler n can be handled
Serve
Eat on their own or make a chillie dip if desired
Before frying
In the oil
Golden brown and ready to eat - crunchy!!
Fried another batch today
Enjoy them warm!
I folded them this way
