EASY BAKED INDIAN SAMOSAS



Easy Baked Indian Samosas image

This has all the flavor and heartiness of a great samosa without the frying. Although this is an easier, healthier version of the fried samosa, it tastes very authentic. This recipe has the added advantage that you can make ahead and freeze uncooked samosas, simply skip the egg brushing, freeze until you're ready and cook at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm, plain, or with chutney.

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
¼ cup oil
2 small onions, finely chopped
3 tablespoons coriander seed
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 roma (plum) tomatoes, finely chopped
½ cup frozen peas
4 prepared pie crusts
2 egg whites, beaten, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and transfer potatoes to a bowl; coarsely mash.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

INDIAN SAMOSA WRAPS



Indian Samosa Wraps image

From: http://www.thehealthseekerskitchen.com/2011/02/indian-samosa-wrap.html I had purchased Amy's Indian Samosa Wraps from the frozen section at Whole Foods and knew I could create these in my own kitchen. Amy's Samosa Wraps were half the size of mine with more than double the fat. I made my own whole wheat tortillas which were a blend between a tortilla and naan bread.

  • Mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Work in Earth Balance Butter with a hand pastry blender.
  • Slowly add warm coconut milk. Stir until a loose, sticky ball is formed.
  • Knead for two minutes on a floured surface. Dough should be firm and soft. Place dough in a bowl and cover with a damp cloth for 30 minutes. This stage is very important.

INDIAN SAMOSA CASSEROLE



Indian Samosa Casserole image

This filling in this recipe from Vegetarian Times is very close to that of authentic Indian samosas. I am including the recipe for whole wheat pie crust given in the magazine but I personally would prefer it made with my usual white flour crust or something closer to a real samosa crust.

TURKEY SAMOSAS

Categories     Potato     turkey     Appetizer     Fry     Thanksgiving     Curry     Deep-Fry     Sugar Conscious     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Makes 6 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

For the samosa dough:
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
4 ounces (10 tablespoons) vegetable shortening, preferably trans-fat-free, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
For the samosa filling:
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 small yellow onion, chopped
1 teaspoon garam masala
1 teaspoon brown mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon black or regular cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon yellow Madras curry powder
4 large cloves garlic, minced
3 cups chopped cooked turkey or rotisserie chicken
1 cup mashed potatoes
1/2 cup cooked peas or diced green beans
1 or 2 fresh hot red or green chiles, thinly sliced
Fine sea salt
To fry the samosas:
1/2 gallon vegetable or canola oil
For serving:
Cilantro-Mint Chutney (optional)
Purchased mango chutney (optional)
Equipment: Pastry brush; 1 large baking sheet; deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Make the samosa dough:
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add the shortening and use a pastry blender or 2 forks to cut the shortening into the flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Gradually add the water in 3 batches and use the pastry blender or forks to gently work it into the dough (the dough will be shaggy at first). Transfer to a work surface, and knead the dough until it's hydrated and starting to smooth out, about 5 minutes (the surface of the dough will still appear shaggy; it will smooth out during resting). Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • While the dough is resting, make the samosa filling:
  • In a heavy large saucepan over moderate heat, melt the butter. Add the onion, garam masala, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and curry powder and sauté, stirring occasionally, until the mustard seeds begin to pop and the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat and add the turkey, mashed potatoes, peas, and hot chiles and stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning as needed with salt and set aside to let cool before filling the samosas.
  • Fill the samosas:
  • Divide the samosa dough into 6 equal parts and roll each into a ball. On a lightly floured surface using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll each ball into a circle that measures about 8 inches across and is about 1/8 inch thick. DO AHEAD: The circles of samosa dough can be made ahead, layered between sheets of wax paper, wrapped in a double layer of plastic, and refrigerated for 24 hours or frozen up to 3 months. Defrost before using.
  • Cut the dough circles in half, so that there are 12 semicircles. Use a pastry brush to lightly brush the flat edge of 1 semicircle with water then fold 1 corner up and over middle. Fold the second corner over to make a triangle, and pinch the corners of the triangle to seal (leave the rounded side open). Hold the triangle in your hand with the open rounded side facing up and let dough fall open to make a cone. Fill with 1/4 cup filling, lightly brush the remaining open edge of the dough with water and then pinch along the rounded side to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. DO AHEAD: Filled samosas can be frozen, well wrapped in plastic, up to 3 months. Fry them from a partially defrosted state.
  • Fry the samosas:
  • Line a large baking sheet with paper towels.
  • In a heavy large saucepan or Dutch oven over moderate heat, heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 325°F. Working in batches, fry the samosas until dark golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer as done to the paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain and cool. Continue to fry the remaining samosas, returning the oil to 325°F between batches. Serve hot with the Cilantro-Mint Chutney and/or the mango Chutney, if desired.
