Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 cup Cauliflower florets (riced)
• 0.5 cup Carrot (finely diced)
• 0.5 cup Green peas (frozen or fresh)
• 0.25 cup Onion (finely chopped)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoons Garam masala
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground coriander
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped)
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Avocado or coconut oil (for greasing and cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 2

Add the egg, olive oil, and water to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until a smooth dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado or coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the riced cauliflower, diced carrots, and green peas. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 6

Add the cumin, garam masala, turmeric, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the vegetables evenly with the spices, then turn off the heat.

Step 7

Mix in the chopped cilantro and let the filling cool completely.

Step 8

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 9

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.

Step 10

Flatten each ball between two sheets of parchment paper, rolling it into a thin circle approximately 4-5 inches in diameter.

Step 11

Cut each circle in half to form two semicircles. Take one semicircle and fold it into a cone shape, sealing the edges with a little water.

Step 12

Fill the cone with 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture, then fold and seal the top of the cone to form a complete samosa. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 13

Place the samosas on the prepared baking sheet and brush lightly with avocado or coconut oil.

Step 14

Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the samosas are golden brown and crisp.

Step 15

Serve warm with low-carb chutney or yogurt dip on the side.
