Instructions

1. In a pan, heat vegetable oil and add cumin seeds. Once they start spitting, add finely diced onions and sauté until golden brown.
2. Add chopped carrots and peas to the pan. Cook until the vegetables are tender. Stir in garam masala, ground coriander, turmeric, chili powder, and salt. Mix well to create a fragrant spice blend.
3. Add the boiled and mashed potatoes to the spice mixture. Combine all ingredients thoroughly, ensuring an even distribution of flavors. Mix in fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness, then set the filling aside to cool.
4. Take your samosa wrappers and cut them into triangular shapes. If making your own, roll out the dough and cut it into triangles. Form cones with the triangular wrappers, sealing the edges with a water-flour paste.
5. Fill each cone with the prepared potato mixture, then seal the open edge, creating a triangular samosa shape.
6. Heat oil in a deep pan and fry the samosas until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remove the samosas from the oil, allowing excess oil to drain on a paper towel. Serve your homemade samosas hot, accompanied by mint chutney or tamarind sauce.

Directions

Prep your filling by peeling and boiling your potatoes until they’re cooked. Smash your green peas and when your potatoes are cooked, drain, cool, and mash them, too. Dice your onion.

Now you can cook the filling mixture. Heat up oil over medium heat, sauteeing onions until fragrant. Add the potatoes, green peas, curry powder, chili powder, sugar, and salt. Cook until the flavors are well-mixed.

Cut your spring roll wrappers into triangles. Scoop one teaspoon of the filling onto each spring roll triangle, brushing the outer edges of the wrapper with egg white, folding, and pinching the edges until tightly sealed. Repeat until you’ve used up all the filling.

Deep fry the samosas at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until golden brown, being sure not to overcrowd the fryer. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve and enjoy!

Although the most well-known and recognizable form of samosas come from India, samosas were actually invented in the Middle East and Central Asia. During the process of trade and cultural exchange between these regions, merchants from the Middle East brought samosas to India, where they became an important part of their cuisine.

Samosas consist of an outer shell made of a flour that is known as maida. This flour is used to make a dough that serves as the outside of a samosa.

After formulating the dough, the magic happens. The samosa dough is then stuffed and fried with a variety of ingredients, which vary depending on the area in India from which the samosas come, as well as personal taste.

Samosas generally contain a filling that includes vegetables (such as
onions, carrots, and peas) and/or meat (such as chicken or lamb). They most often contain boiled potatoes, which serve as the starchy base of the filling.

Yum!
