Ingredients

• 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup water
• 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
• 0.5 cup frozen peas
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger paste (or fresh grated)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix the whole wheat flour and a pinch of black pepper together.

Step 2

Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil to the flour and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add water, kneading to form a firm dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside to rest.

Step 4

Boil the diced potatoes in a pot of water until tender, approximately 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 5

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and onion; sauté until onion is golden brown.

Step 6

Add garlic and ginger paste. Cook for 2 more minutes.

Step 7

Stir in coriander, turmeric, and cinnamon, cooking until fragrant.

Step 8

Add in the boiled potatoes, peas, and fresh ginger. Mix well until all vegetables are well coated.

Step 9

Add the cilantro, lemon juice, and a touch more black pepper. Mix and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Let the filling cool.

Step 10

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each into a small ball, then flatten each ball into a thin circle about 4 inches in diameter.

Step 11

Cut each circle in half. Fold each half into a cone shape, sealing the sides with water.

Step 12

Fill the cone with a spoonful of the vegetable mixture. Seal the open edges with a brush of water.

Step 13

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 14

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 15

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low sodium mini samosas with your favorite low-sodium chutney or yogurt dip.
