Flaxseed meal is a vegan alternative for binding.

Mix 400 grams of all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons of oil, and a little salt in a bowl.

Gradually add water to form a soft but not sticky dough.

Knead the dough for about 3 minutes until smooth, then cover and let it rest.

Pre-boil the minced beef before using it in the filling.

Add spices and onions to the pre-boiled minced beef and mix well.

Roll out the dough into a large thin disc.

Cut the disc into smaller circles for the samosas.

Fill the dough pockets with the beef mixture and seal using a paste made from water and flour.

Ensure there are no holes in the pockets to prevent oil from seeping through during frying.
