Vegetables
10 minutes- In a pan, heat the oil and sauté the garlic and ginger.
- Add the green chilis, then green peas and carrots.
- Season w/ cumin, chili powder, Garam Masala and Knorr Aromat. Sauté until hot and fragrant.
- Adjust seasoning Knorr Aromat if needed.
-
Knorr Potato Flakes
10 minutes- Pour water, fresh milk and Knorr Aromat in a pot.
- Bring to a boil. Turn of heat and gradually add Knorr Potato Flakes.
- When almost smooth and all the liquid is absorbed, add the butter and continue to fold until well incorporated.
- Set aside to cool.
- When cool enough, let the mixture pass through a stainless steel chicken wire strainer to create lumps on the mashed potato mixture.
- Set aside until use for samosa mixture.
-
Frying and Assembly
50 minutes- In a bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables from earlier w/ all the remaining ingredients.
- Mix well and toss inside the bowl.
- Adjust with seasoning if needed.
- Using a cookie cutter, cut the store bought or prepared puffed pastry into 3.5-4-inch size rounds.
- Cut the rounds into half (giving a halfmoon shape). Then apply flour paste to seal the edge of the cone.
- Add a spoonful (around 20-25g) of samosa filling inside the cone then seal again using the flour paste. Press to seal the edges using a fork.
- Store in the freezer in an airtight container or plastic wrapper.
- Deep fry in pre-heated oil at 175-180C. It will take around 5-6 minutes to cook.
- Turn it occasionally to achieve that nice golden brown color. Serve w/ raita and mango chutney on the side.
