• 0.25 cup Low-fat yogurt
• 0.25 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 medium Onion
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Amchur (dry mango) powder
• 0.25 cup Fresh coriander leaves
• 1 medium Green chili
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 for greasing Olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, mix together 1 cup wheat flour, 0.25 cup semolina, and 0.25 cup low-fat yogurt. Add 0.25 cup water gradually, kneading to form a firm dough.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Finely chop 2 medium onions and 1 medium green chili, and 0.25 cup fresh coriander leaves.

Step 4

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, allowing them to splutter.

Step 5

Add the chopped onions to the pan, sautéing until they are translucent.

Step 6

Stir in 1 teaspoon coriander powder, 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder, 0.5 teaspoon garam masala, and 0.5 teaspoon amchur powder into the onions.

Step 7

Cook the mixture for another 5 minutes before adding the chopped green chili and coriander leaves. Mix well and remove from heat.

Step 8

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking tray with olive oil spray.

Step 9

Divide the dough into small balls and roll out each piece into thin circles.

Step 10

Cut each circle in half to form semicircles. Shape each semicircle into a cone and fill with the onion mixture.

Step 11

Seal the edges of the cone using a little water and press firmly to ensure they are sealed properly.

Step 12

Place each filled samosa onto the baking tray, ensuring they are well spaced.

Step 13

Lightly spray or brush the top of each samosa with a little olive oil.

Step 14

Bake the samosas in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Step 15

Remove the samosas from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
