Ingredients
- 4 large sheets Filo Pastry
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 3 ounces Cauliflower Finely Chopped
- 2 medium Potatoes Chopped
- ½ cup Peas Fresh or Frozen
- 2 Carrots Grated or finely sliced
- 1 medium Onion Finely diced
- 2 cloves Garlic Minced
- ½ inch Ginger Minced
- ½ tsp Ground Coriander
- 1 tsp Garam Masala
- 1 tsp Ground Cumin
- 1 tbsp Curry Powder
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of Chili Powder
- ½ cup Fresh Cilantro or Fresh Basil Chopped
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil For brushing
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan at medium heat. Add the onion and let it cook for a few minutes until it turns soft and lightly golden.
- Next, add the minced garlic, chopped ginger, cauliflower, carrots and potatoes. Season with the spices and salt and stir everything together. Add 2 tablespoons water and cover with a lid. Let the dish cook for for 10-15 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked, while stirring occassionally (add extra water if needed).
- When the potatoes and cauliflower are cooked tender, add the peas and mix everything together. Take off the heat and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Unroll the filo pastry and remove one sheet while keeping the rest covered with a clean towel to prevent from drying out.
- Cut the filo sheet in half, so you have 2 square filo sheets. Place 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the filo sheet and fold one side of the sheet over. Continue to fold the filo sheet until it's shaped like a triangle and the filling is completely enclosed within it. Brush a little olive oil on the filo dough to help the edges stick.
- When you have folded and filled all your samosas, place them on the baking sheet and bake them in the middle of the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the samosas are golden and crispy on the outside. Serve with your favorite dip and enjoy.
