Description

These Indian Samosas offer a delicious shortcut to the classic street-food favorite. By using pre-made spring roll wrappers, you skip the labor-intensive process of rolling dough from scratch while still achieving that signature flaky, crisp exterior. The filling is a robust blend of diced potatoes, sweet peas, and aromatic spices like curry powder, ginger, and garlic, creating a savory and comforting bite. Perfect for parties, snacks, or a quick vegetarian meal, these samosas are best served hot with a side of tangy chutney or mint yogurt dip.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, ginger, and garlic to the skillet.
  3. Cook the aromatics for a few minutes until softened but not browned.
  4. Stir in the curry powder and salt, cooking for 30 to 60 seconds to release the fragrance.
  5. Add the water, frozen peas, and diced cooked potatoes to the skillet.
  6. Heat the mixture thoroughly, stirring to combine all ingredients well.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh coriander.
  8. Allow the filling to cool completely before assembling.
  9. Separate the spring roll wrappers individually; cover unused wrappers with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
  10. Place a tablespoon of the cooled filling onto each wrapper.
  11. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg.
  12. Fold the wrapper over the filling into a triangular shape, sealing the edges firmly.
  13. Place the assembled samosas on a baking sheet lined with a clean tea towel.
  14. Heat about 1 inch of oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  15. Fry the samosas in batches for a few minutes on each side until golden and crisp.
  16. Drain the fried samosas on a rack or paper towels.
  17. Serve hot, optionally with chutney as a dip.
