Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 cup Warm water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 pound Ground chicken
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 cup Green peas, optional
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups Cooking oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, and salt for the dough. Mix well.

Step 2

Slowly add warm water to the flour mixture, stirring constantly to form a dough. Knead gently until smooth.

Step 3

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent.

Step 5

Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until completely browned.

Step 7

Stir in garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate the spices.

Step 8

Add green peas if using, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until peas are tender. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 9

Stir chopped cilantro into the cooled chicken filling mixture.

Step 10

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then use a rolling pin to flatten into a circle about 6 inches in diameter.

Step 11

Cut each circle in half to form two semi-circles. Wet the straight edge with a bit of water, then fold to form a cone shape, sealing the edge with your fingers.

Step 12

Fill each cone with about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture, then pinch the top edge to seal the samosa.

Step 13

Heat cooking oil in a deep frying pan to about 350°F (175°C). Fry samosas in batches until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 14

Remove samosas and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 15

Serve warm with your choice of chutney.
