How to fold Samosa?
Divide shell dough into eight balls. Keep the dough covered in plastic film. Roll a ball out into a 8-inch round. It should be about the thickness of a dime (10¢ coin). Cut it into half with a sharp, pointed knife. This will make two half-moon shaped pastries. Pick up one half moon and form a cone, making a ¼ inch wide, overlapping seam; glue this seam together with a little Khol sealer; and fill the cone with about 2 ½ tablespoons of the stuffing. Seal the wide side of the cone fluting the edges.
3. Baking
Lightly brush the top surface of the Samosa with a pastry brush.
Pre-heat oven to 425º F. Bake 10 to 12 minutes. |
