EASY CHICKEN SAMOSA RECIPE

Steps:

• In a pan, add the ghee and when hot add the onion and sauté until translucent.
• Now add the potatoes and sauté for two minutes. Add the ground chicken and cook for three minutes on medium high heat.
• Add the spices and stir for one minute.
• Reduce the heat and cook until the chicken is cooked, and the potatoes are soft.
• Note: You can add half a cup of boiling water to the filling if it is getting too dry and is not thoroughly cooked yet.
• In a bowl, add all the ingredients (except water) and mix well.
• Gradually add the water and knead until you get a smooth and not sticky dough. The dough should have a little firmness to it.
• Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Make 4 equal balls from the dough. Take one ball and roll with the rolling pin into a medium thickness circle around 6 inches. (You won't need flour to roll this dough).
• Use a knife to cut the circle in half.
• Take one-half and fold into a cone - seal along the fold.
• Place this cone between your thumb and index finger. Fill the cone with the filling, might take two tablespoons or little less.
• Wet the edges of the dough with water and pinch to seal (I sealed the dough without adding water, and it didn't open while frying but make sure to pinch firmly. Now you should have a triangle shaped samosa. Repeat this step with the rest of the dough and filling.
• Cover the samosa with a cloth and keep it aside for 20 minutes in a cool place. This step helps the samosa to have fewer bubbles on the pastry when frying, but you can skip it and immediately fry the samosa.
• In a medium pan, heat the frying oil. Add the samosas but do not crowd the pan. Fry on medium heat until the samosa is golden brown. The frying time may take from 7 to 8 minutes, depending on the size of the samosa.

BEEF SAMOSAS

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Stir in potatoes and peas. Cook until potatoes are tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, mash together and set aside.
• In a large saucepan over medium high heat, heat the oil. Brown cumin seeds and bay leaf. Mix in onions and ground beef. Cook until beef is evenly brown and onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Mix in garlic, fresh ginger root. Season with black pepper, salt, cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, cinnamon and cardamom. Stir in the mashed potato mixture. Remove from heat and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or until cool.
• Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan over high heat.
• Mix cilantro and green chile peppers into the potato and beef mixture. Place approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture onto each phyllo sheet. Fold sheets into triangles, pressing edges together with moistened fingers.
• In small batches, fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

POTATO AND PEA SAMOSAS

Steps:

• To make the pastry, add the oil to the flour with 100ml warm water and mix to form a dough. Knead briefly and leave to rest for 30 mins.
• Fry the onions, garlic, ginger and chilli together in 2 tbsp oil for 1 min, then add the potatoes. Cook over a low heat, stirring often, until the potatoes are cooked through - add a little water if they begin to stick. Add the peas or beans and cook until tender, then stir in the coriander, season well and leave to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Divide the dough into 8 balls. One by one, roll each ball into a thin circle, then halve to make 2 semi-circles. Use your finger to brush a little water along the straight edges. Hold one and bring the 2 corners together and, using your hand as a cup, seal along the straight edge to form into cones.
• Fill the cones with the potato mix and pinch the tops closed, sealing again with water. Brush with remaining oil on all sides. Put on baking sheet and bake for 20 mins or until the pastry is crisp. Serve with mango chutney.

SPICY POTATO RAMADAN SAMOSAS

Steps:

• Lightly mix together flour, oil, salt, and carom seeds until crumbly.
• Add water bit by bit until the mixture becomes moist and kneadable.
• Knead the samosa dough for 5-10 minutes (longer if you want the samosa to be soft and crispy). Smack the dough, kill the dough, punch the dough, rip the dough, go ahead!
• Once soft and elastic-like, place the dough in either a bowl covered with glad rap, or a zip lock plastic bag.
• Leave it to set while you make the filling.
• Mash your pre-boiled skinless potatoes if you haven't already, and add coriander (optional) and the green chili. Mix. If you are a person who cannot stand the spiciness or heat, I recommend you omit the green chili.
• Add turmeric, chili powder, salt/pepper, chili flakes and slowly fold.
• Finish off your filling by adding in your shredded PRE-BOILED chicken. One shred should be no bigger than three peas. Mix and place aside.
• Fetch your dough, remove packaging, and divide into five spheres. Roll in dough.
• Get one ball of dough and roll with a rolling pin until as big as your average hand/palm. Cut in half.
• In the middle of one half, place your filling. Around 1 tablespoon or a little more will do.
• Bring one edge, to the other. Repeat with the open edge. You should have something looking like a half pentagon half triangle.
• Close all your edges super tight, and fold where needed. If you skip this step, your filling will be an oily mess. Try to match the shape of a samosa.
• Repeat with the rest of dough, using one ball for two samosas.
• Deepfry until bubbly and very slightly golden.
• Serve with tomato sauce, or chutney!
