Ingredients

• 250 grams White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
• 1 Large onion
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 1 Green chili
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 12 Prepared samosa wrappers
• 1 Egg
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Water

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the onion, garlic, ginger, and green chili. Set aside.

Step 2

In a pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the garlic, ginger, and green chili to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute until aromatic.

Step 5

Add the fish fillets to the pan. Use a spatula to break them into small pieces as they cook. Cook until the fish is opaque and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 6

Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped cilantro and fresh lemon juice. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 7

In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.

Step 8

Take a samosa wrapper and fold it into a cone shape. Fill the cone with 1 tablespoon of the fish filling.

Step 9

Seal the edges of the wrapper with the egg wash and press firmly to ensure it is sealed.

Step 10

Repeat the process until all the wrappers and filling are used.

Step 11

Heat oil for deep frying in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully slide in the samosas.

Step 12

Fry the samosas until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Step 13

Remove the samosas to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 14

Serve hot with your choice of chutney or sauce.
