Samosa with Tamarind Chutney | Teatime snack | Snack Recipes

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: none

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

jaggery

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey is a natural sweetener, while brown sugar is more affordable.

Prepare the dough by mixing all-purpose flour and salt in a bowl.

Add oil to the flour mixture and rub until crumbly.

Gradually add water to form a smooth dough; cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

Boil potatoes until tender, then peel and mash them.

In a pan, heat oil and add cumin seeds; let them splutter.

Add green chilies, ginger, and peas; sauté for 2-3 minutes.

Mix in mashed potatoes, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt; cook for 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and let the filling cool.

Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a thin circle.

Cut the circle in half to form two semi-circles.

Take one semi-circle, form a cone, and seal the edge with water.

Fill the cone with the potato filling and seal the top to form a triangle.

Heat oil in a deep pan for frying; test with a small dough piece until it sizzles.

Fry the samosas in batches until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes each.

For tamarind chutney, mix tamarind pulp, jaggery, cumin powder, chili powder, and lemon juice in a bowl.

Serve the samosas hot with tamarind chutney.
