Hello, friends and food lovers greetings First time trying to publish here on the #inleo platform.
Today, I'm sharing a recipe for a popular Indian street food called Samosa. It's well-known in India and various Asian countries. In India, it's often made in different versions, with the majority being vegan. However, they use animal products in some places, but very few people eat them in India. The majority is 95 % vegan. This is my family's version, which is common in Maharashtra and Goa. Samosas can be enjoyed as a snack, breakfast, lunch, or at parties and gatherings. Despite being vegan food, many people eat them without realizing it. Here is my tutorial to learn how to make samosas.
For 12 pieces of Samosas, we need
ingredients:
! cup of white flour
1/4 cup of semolina
1 tbsp oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda or baking powder
1/2 tsp green carom seeds bishop weed seeds.
1 cup oil for frying.
This is what carom seeds, also known as Bishop weed seeds, look like. Using them in fried food helps to balance the recipe, helping the digestion of oily food and reducing acidity and gas.
For stuffing
1 cup green peas cooked
2 cooked and peeled potatoes
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
2 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp grated ginger
Mix flour semolina salt baking powder and carrom seeds, add oil, and make flourmix crumbly, using water gradually make a soft dough.
Cover and keep the dough aside for around 10 minutes.
Mix potatoes green peas spices.
Add lemon juice.
Using a potato masher mix potatoes green peas, spices lemon juice to make a nice mixture for samosa stuffing. cover and keep aside.
After 10 minutes divide the dough into lemon-sized balls.
Roll them round in 2mm thick using a rolling pin, Cut them in the middle and make half a circle.
Using the water brush the straight side of half circle -round.
Make a cone folding the wet side together.
holding the cone in the hand fill the stuffing into the cone.
Now fold the edges using a few drops of water. The edges should be fixed properly otherwise the oil should go inside the samosas during the frying process.
fold all samosas and keep them covered.
Heat the oil in a pan.
when the oil is enough hot, carefully slide the samosas into it. Don't get hot oil on your hand-fingers.
Fry samosas thoroughly using medium heat.
Flipping them both sides.
Samosas are ready
making green chutney
Ingredients:
1 cup mint leaves
1 small onion white is better I had only red.
1/2 green chili
1 clove of garlic
1/2 tsp salt
1 walnut-size tamarind
Mix all ingredients and using 2 tsp water grind them in the mixer until get a smooth paste.
Green chutney is ready.
I like them with mint chutney which has a spicy and tangy taste, and dates chutney is a sweet and sour taste.
Enjoying them for evening snacks together with coffee and visitors makes a very delicious and favorable evening.
