    oil for frying

    Instructions

    1

    Prepare the samosa dough according to the recipe or use ready-made filo dough.

    Roll out the dough thinly with some flour and cut out squares of approx. 12 x 12 cm. Spread some filling in the top right corner. Brush the dough with some water.

    5

    Fold from top left to right below the dough over the filling and seal the edges. Now fold from left bottom to right above the 'excess' dough over the filling and seal with some water.

    Deep-fry the samosas in 170°C frying oil for a few minutes until brown and crispy.

    * Bake the samosas for about 15 minutes at 180°C in the oven if you are using filo dough (greased with oil).
