Directions
Samosas…indian Savoury Pies,Posted in answer to a request. It seems a little cumbersome, but believe me its worth all the effort! The filling in this recipe is the most basic, and the commonest one of them all, but you can use your imagination and make your own spiced up fillings….minced chicken, mutton, lamb, peas, mushrooms….whatever :),For a person who is a beginner in making samosas, or is trying them out for the first time, this is a wonderful recipe! I made this for the Pick Your Chef contest(July 25-27’03)! These are not spicy even after having 3 green chillies in them due to which, even 10-12 year old’s can enjoy them! I served these with Sweet(Metha) chutney! This made 18 samosas that were gone in less than 8 minutes! The staff at my dad’s office said I made their day(they love to eat!). Next time I’ll be using some lemon juice, greenpeas, mushrooms, more green chillies, more chat masala and more garam masala. used 2 tsps. powdered cumin this time and loved it. I’m also considering using some dried kasoori methi for this(crumbled between my palms). I did use 1 1/4 tsps. salt this time, but will use a little(about 1/2 tsp.) more next time. I did fall short on the amount of paste used to seal the samosas. I had to make exactly the same amt. more of what is stated here. Thank You for the recipe!,Posted in answer to a request.
