Delight in the flavorful and crunchy experience of homemade crispy potato samosas filled with spiced potatoes and peas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1 cup peas, boiled and mashed or whole
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup oil or ghee (for dough)
  • Water (as needed)
  • Oil (for deep frying)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a pan, heat about 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Toss in the cumin seeds and wait until they splutter. Add the onions and green chilies, sautéing until the onions are translucent.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Stir in the boiled potatoes and peas, along with the garam masala, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for a few minutes, then set aside to cool.
  3. Make the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, oil, and salt. Gradually add water, kneading until you form a soft and pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
  4. Shape the Samosas: Divide the dough into small balls, roll each into a thin oval shape, then cut it in half to create semicircles.
  5. Form the Cone: Take one half, form a cone shape, seal the edge, fill with a spoonful of the potato mixture, and seal the open end.
  6. Fry to Perfection: In a deep pan, heat oil and fry samosas in batches until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
  7. Drain and Serve: Use a slotted spoon to remove samosas and place on paper towels. Serve hot with chutney or yogurt dip.

Notes

For a healthier option, consider air frying or baking the samosas instead of deep frying. Customize the filling with additional vegetables if desired.
