Below are the following steps for this delectable snack:

Ingredients used for the outer crisp layer

• 1.5 cups of Maida flour
• 1 tsp carom seeds (ajwain)
• 3 tbsp ghee/oil
• Salt according to the taste

Ingredients for the filling

• 3 medium sized potatoes
• 1/2 cups of green peas (mutter)
• 1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
• 1 tbsp green chili-ginger paste
• 1/ 2 tsp red chili powder
• 1 tsp coriander powder (dhaniyan)
• 1/ 2 tsp garam masala powder
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp fennel seeds powder (saunf)
• 2 tbsp coriander leaves (finely chopped)
• Salt according to taste
• Oil for deep frying

How to cook?

• Boil potatoes and green peas in a salted water in the pressure cooker.

• Transfer them into the colander (chalni) and cool them for a few minutes.

• Peel the potatoes and mash them properly.

• Now, prepare dough for the crispy outer layer. Add Maida flour, carom seeds, oil/ghee, and salt in a platter (paraat).

• Mix all the ingredients with your hands and knead them to form a hard dough. Cover it with a wet cloth and keep aside for 15-20 minutes.

• Now, for filling, heat oil in a wok (kadhai), add cumin seeds and green chili-ginger paste. Stir and cook for a few minutes.

• Add boiled green peas and fried quickly for a minute. After that, add red chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, lemon juice and fennel seeds powder.

• Stir the mixture well.

• Add mashed potatoes and salt, if it’s required and mix them properly. Cook for 2-3 minutes and add coriander leaves into it.

• Now, remove the wet cloth from the dough and make round shaped balls of it.

• Take one ball, slightly press it between your palms and put it over a rolling board, roll it out in a round shaped with a rolling pin.

• Cut it into two semi-circles and spread water with a finger on the edges.

• Take one semi-circle and give it a shape like a cone by folding it from both the sides.

• Put the one green pea at the bottom, so that its shape doesn’t change.

• Add 2-3 tbsp of filling in the cone and wet the edges from the fingers and press it tightly with your thumb to seal them.

• So, like the same, give the shape to the other balls and fill them.

• After that, heat the oil in a wok (kadhai) and add 2-3 Samosa. Cook them in a low flame, so that they all cook properly and uniformly.
