Preparation
- Samosa Dough: In a bowl, add plain flour, salt, ajwain, oil and suji. Mix well until the oil is incorporated in the flour. Press the flour in the fist. If it holds shape the mixture is ready to add water.
- Add water little by little and knead the dough. It should be neither too soft nor too hard. Shape the dough into a ball. Apply some oil, cover and allow to stand for half an hour.
- Filling: To make the filling, mash the potatoes with hands, and add the ingredients. Mix.
- I have shared two methods of shaping samosas. Shape into samosas and deep fry in oil on medium flame.
- Enjoy with your favourite chutney.
