Vegan Samosa
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup boiled and mashed potatoes
- 1/2 cup boiled green peas
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garam masala
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves
- Salt to taste
- Water for sealing
- Oil for frying
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, and vegetable oil. Add water gradually and knead into a firm dough. Cover the dough and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine mashed potatoes, boiled green peas, chopped onions, ginger-garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, chopped coriander leaves, and salt. Mix well.
- Divide the dough into small equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle.
- Cut the rolled dough circle into half. Take one half and fold it to form a cone shape, overlapping the edges.
- Fill the cone with the prepared potato mixture.
- Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the cone. Press the edges to seal the cone.
- Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Carefully slide the filled samosas into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the samosas from the oil and drain on a kitchen paper towel to remove excess oil.
- Serve hot with chutney or sauce of your choice.
