Description
Authentic samosas are a labor of love. These are semi-homemade: using ready to use spring rolls sheets stuffed with lightly spiced potato and deep-fried until crispy and golden.
Ingredients
Mashed potato filling
- 2 cups Mashed potatoes boiled and mashed
- ½ cup Onions chopped and sauteed
- ½ tsp Kosher salt
- ½ tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Turmeric
- ¼ cup Cilantro or parsley chopped
Spring roll samosa pastry
- 6 Spring roll sheets
- ¼ cup Water for brushing the pastry
Instructions
Mashed potato filling
- Boil potatoes - Wash, peel, and dice the potatoes into equal-sized pieces about 1 1/2 inches. Boil the potatoes in a large pot of cold salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10 to 12 minutes until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes in a colander (or use a slotted spoon) and put them back into the same pot on low heat for another two minutes. Cool completely.2 cups Mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup Onions, 1/2 tsp Black pepper, 1 tsp Turmeric, ¼ cup Cilantro , ½ tsp Kosher salt
- Combine - In a mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes with sautéed onions, salt, pepper, turmeric, and chopped parsley or cilantro. Combine well. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Assemble
- Fill - Divide each spring roll sheet into three. Work with one piece at a time. Place a generous amount of filling on one-third of the sheet. Fold the sheet into a triangle, as shown in the video. Brush the bottom 2-inch pastry with water to keep the seams closed.1/4 cup Water, 6 Spring roll sheets
- Deep fry - Pour the oil into a large pot and heat it on medium to high. The oil must be hot but not too hot, about 325°F to 350°F. No more. Deep fry the spring roll samosas for about 2 to 3 minutes each.
- Cool - Remove paper hand towels to absorb excess oil. Serve with sauce and chutney. I serve mine with green chutney, tomato ketchup, and tamarind chutney.
