Ingredients

• 500 g Ground lamb
• 2 tbsp Coconut oil
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 2 tsp Garam masala
• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Ground coriander
• 0.5 tsp Red chili powder
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 cup Arrowroot flour
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Tapioca flour
• 2 large Egg
• 0.25 cup Water
• 0.25 cup Coconut milk

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the ground lamb to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the garam masala, cumin, coriander, red chili powder, salt, and black pepper, and cook for another 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.

Step 4

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Set aside to cool.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the arrowroot flour, almond flour, and tapioca flour.

Step 6

Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl and stir in the water and coconut milk. Then add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Using your hands, form each portion into a ball and then flatten it into a circle, about 5 mm thick, on a clean surface dusted lightly with arrowroot flour.

Step 8

Place a spoonful of the lamb filling onto the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling, forming a half-moon shape. Press the edges together to seal the samosa. Repeat for all portions.

Step 9

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 10

Place the samosas on the prepared baking tray and lightly brush with the remaining tablespoon of melted coconut oil.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the samosas are golden brown and crispy.

Step 12

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Paleo Lamb Samosas as a tasty appetizer!
