POTATO & PEA SAMOSAS (VEGAN)



Potato & Pea Samosas (Vegan) image

This is a mild samosa suitable for children, while maintaining a flavor adults also love. My kids love it with some ketchup for dipping, while adults could enjoy it with an Indian dipping sauce such as plum or mango.

Categories     Side dish

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 small onions , chopped
2 garlic cloves , chopped
4cm-piece fresh ginger , grated
2 green chillies , deseeded and finely chopped
4 tbsp oil
3 large potatoes , cut into small cubes
100g frozen pea or finely sliced green beans
small bunch coriander , leaves chopped
mango chutney , to serve
2 tbsp oil
225g plain flour

Steps:

  • To make the pastry, add the oil to the flour with 100ml warm water and mix to form a dough. Knead briefly and leave to rest for 30 mins.
  • Fry the onions, garlic, ginger and chilli together in 2 tbsp oil for 1 min, then add the potatoes. Cook over a low heat, stirring often, until the potatoes are cooked through - add a little water if they begin to stick. Add the peas or beans and cook until tender, then stir in the coriander, season well and leave to cool.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Divide the dough into 8 balls. One by one, roll each ball into a thin circle, then halve to make 2 semi-circles. Use your finger to brush a little water along the straight edges. Hold one and bring the 2 corners together and, using your hand as a cup, seal along the straight edge to form into cones.
  • Fill the cones with the potato mix and pinch the tops closed, sealing again with water. Brush with remaining oil on all sides. Put on baking sheet and bake for 20 mins or until the pastry is crisp. Serve with mango chutney.

Time 2h30m

Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into pieces
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes (4 to 5), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (4 cups)
Kosher salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus about 2 quarts for frying
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 teaspoon brown mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 large onion, finely chopped (1 1/2 cups)
2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled ginger (from 3-inch piece)
1 large serrano or jalapeno chile, seeded for less heat if desired, finely chopped (3 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (from 2 to 3 cloves)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup tightly packed coarsely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup frozen peas, partially thawed
Fresh Cilantro Chutney, for serving (optional)
Tamarind-Date Chutney, thinned with water until dippable consistency is reached, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Dough:Whisk together flour, salt, and cumin. Work in butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add 1/3 cup water and stir until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a clean surface; knead until smooth, about 4 minutes. Cover with a bowl. Let rest 1 hour. (Dough can be made ahead up to this point and refrigerated, wrapped in plastic, up to overnight.)
  • Filling:In a medium saucepan, cover potatoes with 2 inches water. Add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Swirl in 1/4 cup oil. Add cumin, mustard, and coriander; cook until fragrant and mustard seeds begin to pop, about 1 minute. Add onion, ginger, chile, and garlic. Season with 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add potatoes and cook, stirring and mashing with the back of a fork, until the texture of very chunky mashed potatoes. Add lemon juice, cilantro, and peas. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt. Let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
  • Once dough is rested, roll into a log about 10 inches long. Cut into 10 pieces (each about 1 1/2 ounces). Cover with plastic wrap. Working with one piece at a time on an unfloured surface, roll out to a 6-inch circle. Cut circle in half to create two half-moon shapes. Shape each half-moon into a cone by folding it in half and pinching the straight sides together. Fill each cone with heaping 2 tablespoons filling, then pinch closed to create a stuffed triangle. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  • In a deep, heavy pot, heat remaining 2 quarts oil (it should come 2 inches up sides of pot) to 350 degrees. Working in batches so as not to crowd pot, fry samosas, turning occasionally, until golden brown all over, about 4 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to keep oil temperature between 340 and 360 degrees. Transfer to a wire rack to drain. Serve with chutneys, if desired.

Tips:

  • For crispy samosas, use a good quality oil for frying and maintain the correct oil temperature. A good temperature for frying is between 350°F (175°C) and 375°F (190°C).
  • To make sure the samosas are cooked through, fry them until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • If you are short on time, you can use store-bought samosa wrappers. Just make sure to thaw them properly before using them.
  • Feel free to experiment with different fillings. You can try aloo gobi (potato and cauliflower), paneer (Indian cheese), or keema (minced meat). You make a variety of vegetable samosa fillings using green peas, corn, carrots and bell peppers.
  • Serve samosas with your favorite chutney or sauce. Some popular choices include tamarind chutney, green chutney, and mint chutney.

Conclusion:

Potato pea samosas are a delicious and versatile snack or appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or meat-eater, there is a samosa filling out there for you. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack, give potato pea samosas a try.
