Recipe Information
Lentil Sambusas
Cultural Context
Lentil sambusas are a beloved snack in Somalia, often enjoyed during special occasions and gatherings. These savory pastries highlight the use of lentils, a staple in Somali cuisine, and are filled with aromatic spices that reflect the region's rich culinary traditions. Today, sambusas have gained popularity beyond Somalia, with variations found in many East African and Middle Eastern cuisines.
Start with cooking lentils in vegetable base at a ratio of 1 cup lentils to 3 cups vegetable base.
Stir the lentils while they cook until soft and all the water is absorbed.
Heat a pan over medium heat and add a little oil.
Add fresh chopped garlic to the heated oil.
Add diced red onions to the pan and sauté until translucent.
Seed and add jalapenos to the pan, adjusting for spice level.
Add the cooked lentils to the pan with the sautéed vegetables.
Add coriander and a hint of cinnamon to the lentils.
Add a pinch of salt, being careful not to add it too early to avoid messing up the lentils.
Let the mixture sauté for about 2 minutes to marry the flavors.
