INDIAN SAMOSA

Ingredients
 1 Cup Vegetable Oil - for frying the samosas

For Potato Filling: For Dough / Wrapper / Shell:


 4 Large Boiled Potatoes - peeled  2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
 3 Tbsp Coriander Powder  1 Tbsp Carrom Seeds
 1 Tbsp Cumin Powder  1 Tsp Salt
 1 Tbsp Dry Mango Powder  5 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
 1 Tbsp All spices mix Powder
 1 Tbsp Red Chili Powder
 1 Tbsp Salt - use as per taste

Instructions
Potato Filling:
1. In a large bowl, add boiled potatoes.
2. Mash using a fork or potato masher or any large spoon.
3. Add all the spices and mix well to combine potatoes with spices.
4. Keep the filling aside.
Making the Dough:
1. We add all the dough ingredients (except water) to a large bowl and mix to form a crumble.
2. Then we hold the crumble in our palm and if the shape stays (STEP 4 below) then you are
ready for the next step (or add 1-2tbsp more oil).
3. Now add 3-4 tbsp water and mix the dough to a thick and tight dough-like shape.
4. Add all the water and knead to form a tight/hard dough.
5. Keep it aside for 15 minutes (this step helps flour form gluten and become pliable)
Make the Wrapper / Shell:
1. Divide the dough into 15 equal balls and roll till no lines are visible.
2. Take each ball and roll it on a flat surface to form a 1.5-inch-thick disc.
3. Now cut the disc in the middle to form a half-moon shape.
4. Apply water to the cut edges and form a triangle (sealing with water).
5. Lift the triangle in your palm to form a cone shape
6. Now, take 1 tbsp potato filling and add inside the cone (leaving some space on the top to
seal).
7. Dab some water on the inside of one side of the cone and seal the cone.
8. Seal the edges to make sure it's air-tight and doesn't burst while cooking.
9. Follow the steps above and make all the samosa shapes.
Fried Crispy Samosa:
1. Heat oil in a pan.
2. Add 3-4 raw samosas to the pan and fry on a low-medium flames.
3. Fry till golden brown on both sides.
