Samosas With Mint Chutney

Instructions

1. First, prepare the Mint Chutney: Combine all Mint Chutney ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add water as needed to adjust the consistency. Set aside.
2. Next, make the dough: In a large bowl, combine all Dough ingredients except water. Gradually add water and mix until a firm dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
3. Prepare the filling: Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and saute until golden brown. Add grated ginger and minced garlic, and saute for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add mashed potatoes, peas, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, amchur powder, and salt to the pan. Mix well and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
5. Remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro. Let the filling cool slightly.
6. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a small circle (about 4 inches in diameter).
7. Cut each circle in half. Take one half, moisten the straight edge with water, and bring the two corners together to form a cone. Seal the edges well.
8. Fill the cone with the potato and pea filling. Seal the open end by pinching the edges together to form a samosa shape.
9. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
10. Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. Carefully add the samosas in batches and deep fry until golden brown and crispy (about 5-7 minutes per batch).
11. Remove the samosas from the oil and drain on paper towels.
12. Serve hot with the prepared Mint Chutney.
