Ingredients

• 200 grams Vegan chicken pieces
• 2 medium Potatoes
• 100 grams Frozen peas
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 2 teaspoons Garam masala
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Water
• 20 sheets Vegan samosa wrappers
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water for slurry
• 500 milliliters Oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in a pot of water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cut the vegan chicken into small bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and sauté until they start to crackle.

Step 4

Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Add the vegan chicken pieces and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Add turmeric, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to coat the vegan chicken with spices.

Step 7

Add the cooked potatoes and frozen peas to the skillet. Mix everything well and cook for another 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. This will be used to seal the samosa edges.

Step 9

Take one samosa wrapper and lay it flat. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the filling at one end. Fold the wrapper into a triangular shape, sealing the edges with the cornstarch slurry. Repeat until all wrappers are filled.

Step 10

Heat the oil for frying in a deep pot or fryer to 180°C (350°F). Gently place 3-4 samosas into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.

Step 11

Fry the samosas until golden and crispy, approximately 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Step 12

Serve the vegan chicken samosas hot with your favorite vegan chutney or dipping sauce.
