Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Coconut flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk
• 0.75 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cups Cauliflower
• 0.5 cup Green peas
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon Green chili, minced
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 2 tablespoons Chopped cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Ghee or coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

Heat the water until warm (not boiling) and add olive oil. Pour the warm liquid into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough briefly until smooth.

Step 4

Divide the dough into six equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball and flatten it slightly into a circle using your hands or a rolling pin.

Step 5

Steam or boil the cauliflower until tender, then mash it until it reaches a smooth, rice-like consistency.

Step 6

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the ghee or coconut oil. Add grated ginger and minced green chili, sautéing for 1 minute.

Step 7

Add the mashed cauliflower, green peas, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, turmeric, and salt to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Remove from heat and mix in the chopped cilantro. Allow the filling to cool slightly.

Step 9

Take each circle of dough and place a spoonful of filling in the center. Fold the dough over the filling to form a semi-circle and seal the edges by pinching them together. Ensure the samosas are tightly sealed.

Step 10

Place the samosas on the lined baking tray and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 11

Let the samosas cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with a side of mint yogurt dip or your favorite chutney.
