Vegetable Samosa

So for my signature recipe, I have vegetarian samosas for you today! Everyone loves vegetarian samosas. So here we go!


Ingredients:


2 Large potatoes (or 4 small potatoes)
1 cup peas
1 small onion diced
2 large garlic
same size ginger
3-4 green chillies(depending on how spicy you want it)

Spices:

1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp garam masala
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh coriander
puff pastry


Method:

1.) Boil the peas and potatoes that have been peeled. Let it cool down and mash it completely.

2.) In a pan, take about 2 tbsp oil, let it get slightly hot, and then we ate the finely chopped onions. I have the chopped ginger, garlic and onion paste, and I put that along with the onions. Saute it till it becomes golden brown.

3.) Next we add the mashed mixture, and add all the spices(give measurements for all the spices) and let it cook for about 7 minutes, till its all well mixed.

4.) We let the mixture cool.

5.) Now to assemble our vegetarian samosa, we take the thawed puff pastry and put about a tablespoonful of the mixture and cover it! Brush it with some olive oil for a crusty top.

6.) Next you bake them in the oven at 350 degrees preheated oven till they turn golden brown, which is for around 5 minutes. Voila! The samosas are ready!!:)

You can eat them with cilantro mint chutney or with ketchup. ITs DELICIOUSSSS!!!!!

Next, I shall be giving you the recipe for cilantro mint chutney.
