250 g Flour
3 EL Oil (for the dough)
ca. 100 ml Water (lukewarm)
400 g Potatoes
100 g Peas (frozen)
1 Stück Onion
1 TL Cumin (ground)
1 TL Coriander (ground)
1 TL Garam masala
nach Bedarf Oil (for frying the filling and deep-frying)
150 g Chutney (for serving)

Preparation

  1. 1 Knead flour, oil, water and a pinch of salt into a firm dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  2. 2 Peel the potatoes, cut them into cubes and cook until soft.
  3. 3 Dice the onion and sauté in oil until translucent, briefly toast the spices, add the potatoes and peas and crush roughly; leave to cool.
  4. 4 Divide the dough into small portions, roll them out flat, shape into pockets and fill with the filling; press the edges firmly closed.
  5. 5 Fry the samosas in oil at 180 °C for about 4–5 minutes until golden brown (or bake on an oiled baking tray at 200 °C for about 20 minutes, turning once).
  6. 6 Drain and serve with chutney.

Notes & tips

Note: Contains gluten (wheat dough). The samosas can be prepared and frozen raw — then bake or fry them straight from frozen and extend the time slightly. Serve with mint or tamarind chutney.
