Mini Samosa, Indian Snacks, Namkeens, Haldirams, 200g

Samosa is a potato stuffed, deep fried snack which is very popular in India. I am a huge fan of samosa and I wanted to make proper punjabi samosa for a long time. The secret ingredients for making a proper punjabi samosa are coriander seeds, dry pomegranate seeds and fennel seeds. Samosas came out really good and I am so excited to share the recipe.

Now add the red chilly powder followed by coriander powder and dry mango powder.
Now add the freshly powdered coriander, fennel and dry pomegranate powder and mix well.
Add the peas salt and cashews and mix well till the raw smell goes.
Now divide the dough to 10 equal sized balls and roll them to thin oval shape.
cut to two halves and apply water to the edges.
Make it like a cone (center straight part will come as the tip of the cone) and add a spoon full of the potato stuffing.
Seal the edges by applying water.
Heat oil in a wide pan and fry the samosoa in the medium heat.
Fry till they become golden brown and serve hot with coriander chutney or ketchup.
