Ingredients

• 1 large head Cauliflower
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 300 grams Fish fillet (like tilapia or cod)
• 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
• 2 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon grated Ginger
• 1 finely chopped Green chili
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh coriander
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the cauliflower. Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until you get a rice-like texture.

Step 2

Transfer the riced cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 5 minutes on high until tender. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 3

Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean cloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to get a firm dough.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, egg, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt until a dough forms. Set aside.

Step 5

For the filling, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, ginger, and green chili. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

Step 6

Add the fish fillets to the pan. Use a spatula to break the fish into small pieces as it cooks. Continue until the fish is fully cooked and any liquid has evaporated.

Step 7

Stir in garlic powder, ground cumin, garam masala, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the fish evenly with spices.

Step 8

Finish by mixing in the chopped coriander, and remove from heat. Allow the filling to cool slightly.

Step 9

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 10

To form the samosas, divide the cauliflower dough into 10 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a circle about 5 inches in diameter.

Step 11

Place a spoonful of the fish mixture in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing them with your fingers.

Step 12

Arrange the samosas on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden and crisp.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm.
