SAMOSA RECIPE | PUNJABI SAMOSA | ALOO SAMOSA
Steps:
- Take the flour, carom seeds, salt in a bowl. Mix well and add ghee.
- With your fingertips rub the ghee or oil in the flour to get a breadcrumb like consistency.
- The whole mixture should clump together when joined and not fall apart.
- Add water in parts and knead to a firm dough.
- If the dough looks dry or floury, then add 1 to 2 tablespoons more water and knead.
- Cover the dough with a moistened napkin and set aside for 30 minutes.
- Steam or boil the potatoes and peas till are cooked completely. Drain them of any extra water in a colander or sieve.
- Peel the boiled potatoes and chop them into small cubes
- Dry roast all the whole spices mentioned in the above list until fragrant taking care not to burn them.
- When the spices are warm or cool at room temperature, grind them in a dry grinder or coffee grinder to a semi-fine or fine powder.
- Heat oil in a pan. add the cumin seeds and crackle them.
- Add the ginger and green chillies. Sauté for a few seconds until the raw aroma of ginger goes away.
- Add the steamed green peas, red chili powder, the freshly ground spice powder, dry mango powder and asafoetida.
- Stir and sauté on a low heat for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the potato cubes. Mix very well and sauté for about 2 to 3 minutes on low heat with frequent stirring.
- Set aside the potato filling aside to cool at room temperature.
- After resting the dough for 30 minutes, divide the dough in 6 equal pieces.
- Take each piece and roll in your palms first to make a smooth ball.
- Then roll it with a rolling pin keeping the thickness to 1 mm throughout.
- Cut with a knife or a pastry cutter through the center of the rolled samosa pastry.
- With a brush or with your finger tips, spread some water all over the edges.
- Join the two straight ends forming a cone shape.
- Press the edges so that they get sealed well.
- Stuff the prepared samosa cone with the prepared potato-peas stuffing.
- Pinch a part on the edge (check the video & photos). This helps the samosa to stand once it is shaped.
- Press both the edges. Be sure there are no cracks.
- Prepare all the samosa this way and keep covered with a moist kitchen napkin.
- Now heat oil for deep frying in a kadai or pan. Once the oil becomes hot (test by adding a small piece of dough - it should come up quickly once added to the hot oil). Gently slide the prepared stuffed samosa & quickly reduce the flame to low.
- Turn over in between and fry until golden. Drain the fried samosa on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Fry them in batches. For frying the second batch, again increase the temperature of the oil to medium-heat. Do not overcrowd the pan while frying.
- Add the samosa and then lower the flame, thereby decreasing the temperature of oil.
- This way fry all the samosa in batches.
- Serve samosa hot or warm with coriander chutney, tamarind chutney or tomato ketchup.
- They can also be served with a yogurt dip or plain raita. Another way is to serve it with chana masala (chickpea curry).
- We usually pair samosa with masala chai or ginger chai.
- Even bread or pav (Indian bread rolls) can be served with it.
- Whatever you serve samosa with, remember to have hot masala chai with it.

EASY BAKED INDIAN SAMOSAS
This has all the flavor and heartiness of a great samosa without the frying. Although this is an easier, healthier version of the fried samosa, it tastes very authentic. This recipe has the added advantage that you can make ahead and freeze uncooked samosas, simply skip the egg brushing, freeze until you're ready and cook at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm, plain, or with chutney.

Steps:
- To make the dough: Mix the salt and flour in a medium bowl or a food processor. With a pastry blender, incorporate the butter until crumbs have formed. Add the water a few tablespoons at a time, until you can form a ball. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes. Let it rest for about 15 minutes more. You can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it.
- To make the filling: Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- If using fresh carrots, chop and simmer in water, to cover, in a small pot. Add the corn and peas to barely cook. Set aside to cool.
- Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion until golden. Add the garlic, ginger, and chile and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garam masala, turmeric, chile powder, and salt and cook 2 minutes more.
- In a bowl combine the mashed potatoes, the onion and spice mixture, carrots, peas, corn, lemon juice, and chopped coriander. Mix well.
- To assemble the samosas: Divide the dough into 9 equal size balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a 5-inch circle. Cut each circle in half.
- Brush the straightedge side with a little water, fold it in half, and align the two straight sides so they overlap to form a cone shape. Squeeze the edges together to make a tight seal. Place approximately 1 generous tablespoon of filling inside each cone, leaving the top edge clean. Moisten the inside top rim of the cone and press the edges together to make another tight seal. Place the samosas on a tray until ready to fry. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Heat approximately 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep saucepan. Fry several samosas at a time, being careful not to crowd them. When 1 side turns golden brown, flip it over to brown on the other side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with chutney.

- 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.

SAMOSAS
This samosa recipe is one of my family's absolute favorites. These crispy dough pockets are stuffed with potatoes and peas, then air-fried to give them a healthier twist. In India's northern and western regions, samosas are a popular street food. They also make a perfect starter or side dish. -Soniya Saluja, The Belly Rules the Mind
