Aloo Samosa

Aloo Samosa is loved by everyone. Recipe of Aloo samosa step by step…………

My son was insisting me to make samosas so today I’ll be preparing Aloo samosa. It tastes best than those available at market. Its everyone’s favorite tea time snack and once you make it at home you’ll never turn to those market samosas.

Samosa stuffing can be varied. I have made stuffing by using only potatoes. So lets make Aloo samosa 

Ingredients:

For dough :

1. All purpose flour – 2 1/4 cup
2. Oil – 2 to 3 tbsp
3. Carom seeds (ajwain)- 1 tsp
4. Salt – 3/4 tsp
5. Water –  as required

For stuffing

1. Potatoes- 6 to 8, boiled and mashed
2. Green chilies- 3 to 4
3. Garlic cloves- 6 to 7
4. Ginger – 1/2 inch
5. Cumin seeds- 1/2 tsp
6. Fennel seeds- 1/2 tsp, crushed
7. Coriander powder- 1/2 tsp
8. Garam masala powder- 1/2 tsp
9. Salt- as required
10. Oil – For deep frying samosas

Method:

1. Check ingredients for making Aloo Samosa 
2. We are going to make Green chilly- garlic paste. For that take green chilies, garlic,ginger,cumin seeds.
3. In a mixer/grinder, grind it to coarse mixture.
4. In a bowl, take all purpose flour, salt, carom seeds and oil. mix well. Start kniding by adding water little by little.
5. Make a dough that is neither too soft or too stiff. 
6. In a pan, heat 1 tbsp of oil 
7. Add the coarse mix of green chilies and garlic paste. Fry for 2 to 3 mins.
8. Add mashed potatoes. 
9. Add Coriander powder and Garam powder and mix well
10. Add salt and mix again
11. Your potato filling is ready. Let it cool down completely.
12. Make small balls of the dough. 
13. Now take one ball and roll it like a roti but neither too thick nor thin
14. Cut into 2 equal halves 
15. Apply some water on half of the straight edge. Try to join them and make a cone.
16. Stuff the cone with potato stuffing
17. Apply some water on the corner of the edge and press them tight. This will help your samosa to stand
18. In the same way make samosas of all the dough.
19. Heat oil in a kadhai or frying pan. The oil should be heated well.
20. On a low to medium flame, start dipping the samosas slowly.
21. Fry the samosas till golden on a low flame. Fry all the samosas in similar way. 

Your Aloo Samosas are ready. Serve with Mint chutney or Tamarind chutney.  Note:

1. I have made big samosas. If you want to want small samosas, just make small size balls.
2. To make Samosas requires a little patience. By little practice you will make perfect samosas.
3. While frying samosas keep in mind to fry samosas on low flame, otherwise they would not cook from inside
