Ingredients

• 300 grams ground beef or lamb
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 200 grams almond flour
• 3 tablespoons tapioca flour
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add ground meat to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking up any large chunks with a spatula.

Step 4

Stir in cumin seeds, coriander powder, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 more minutes to allow the spices to release their flavors.

Step 5

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the fresh cilantro. Let the filling cool while you prepare the dough.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour and tapioca flour. Create a well in the center and add the egg and 1 tablespoon of melted coconut oil.

Step 7

Mix thoroughly until the dough comes together. If the mixture is too dry, add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough is pliable.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 9

Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and roll each into a ball. Roll out each ball into a small circle on a surface dusted with tapioca flour, keeping the edges thin.

Step 10

Place about a tablespoon of the meat mixture on one half of the circle, fold over the other half, and seal the edges by pressing them together.

Step 11

Brush the tops of the samosas with the remaining melted coconut oil.

Step 12

Place the samosas on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden and crisp.

Step 13

Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Whole30 Meat Samosas with a side of Whole30 compliant dipping sauce.
