Baked Samosa ( no deepfrying, no using Puff pastry sheets)

Can't imagine Samosas without frying in oil right !! Check out my version of baked samosas, without deep frying in oil also not using the greasy buttery puff pastry sheets..Just bake it for about 20 mins and eat hot with tangy tamarind sauce. Weight watchers can have 1 2 or 3 samosa without feeling guilty !!:))



Ingredients for the stuffings:
Oil                                     : 3 tbspn
carrom seeds                     : 1/2 tbspn
Garlic minced                    : 1 tbspn
fresh/frozen green peas     : 1/2 cup
potatoes, boiled n mashed : 500 gm


Dry Masala powders:
Salt                         : 1tbspn or to Taste
coriander powder   : 1/2 tspn
jeera powder           : 1/2 tspn
turmeric                  : 1/4 tspn
garam masala pwdr : 1/2 tspn
red Chilli powder    : 1 tspn
aamchur powder     : 1/2 tspn




Method:
  • boil the potatoes, peel n keep aside
  • Heat some oil in a griddle
  • when hot add carom seeds/ ajwain and minced Garlic . After few seconds add in the green peas. sauté until they cook well. then add all the dry powder
  • stir them all in oil for a while, transfer the mashed potatoes n mix well
  • add more salt, chilli powder n aamchur if desired

Procedere for samosas:
  • Take a frozen ready to eat paranthas (any brand), thaw sightly to make it soft and divide it into 2 equal parts with a knife. I used this, whole wheat Methi parathas


  • Line the edges of paranthas with just a little water
  • Place sufficeint amount of potato mixture near one end and fold the other end. seal the edges tightly

  • another variation, smear some tamarind sauce or dates tamarind chutney on the base before adding the potato mixture
  • preheat the oven to 200 degree C (around 400 degree F) for 10 mins.
  • Place an aluminium sheet in an oven tray, smear with few drops of oil n place the samosa

  • Bake for about 25 mins or till it turn brown and crispy



  • Here is the outcome..



Note: 

  • Along with potatoes, you can add a lot of vegetables like capsicum, beans and carrots to make it still more healthier
