Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Neutral vegetable oil (for dough)
• 0.5 cups Water
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 2 medium Potatoes (peeled and diced)
• 1 medium Carrot (diced small)
• 0.5 cups Frozen peas
• 1 small Onion (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoons Ginger (minced)
• 1 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoons Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoons Garam masala
• 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
• 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix well until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Step 2

Gradually add water (a little at a time) and knead the flour into a firm, smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Boil the diced potatoes and carrots in lightly salted water until tender, then drain and set aside.

Step 4

In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute.

Step 5

Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, garam masala, and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the boiled potatoes, carrots, and peas to the pan. Mash slightly while mixing to combine the spices into the vegetables.

Step 7

Stir in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Remove the filling from the heat and let it cool completely.

Step 8

Divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a circle, about 6 inches in diameter, and cut each circle in half to create two semi-circles.

Step 9

Take one semi-circle and fold it into a cone shape, sealing the edges with a little water. Fill the cone with the vegetable filling, then seal the open edge completely. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 10

Heat the frying oil in a deep pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Fry the samosas in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes per batch.

Step 11

Remove the fried samosas with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 12

Serve warm with chutney or your favorite dipping sauce.
