Healthy Samosa Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup low-fat milk
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 cup peeled and boiled potatoes
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped coriander
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp of salt

  • A pinch of baking soda
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, milk, 1 tablespoon of oil and a pinch of salt to form a soft dough.
  2. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it’s smooth and set aside for 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, mash the boiled potatoes. Add coriander, spices and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.
  4. Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle of about 6 inches in diameter.
  5. Heat oil in a pan for deep frying. Test the oil by dropping a small piece of dough – it should sizzle and rise to the top.
  6. Place a spoonful of the potato mixture on one half of the circle. Fold the other half over it and press the edges to seal.
  7. Gently slide the samosas into the hot oil and fry until golden brown. Drain excess oil using kitchen towels.
  8. Serve hot with your favourite dip or chutney!
