  • 2 tbsp Oil
  • ½ cup Water

Filling:

  • 4 Broccoli heads cut in florets
  • 2 Small Potatoes boiled & mashed
  • 3 Garlic cloves
  • 1 Small Onion chopped

  • tsp Dry Mango Powder
  • 2 tsp Garam Masala
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • Coriander Leaves

Instructions
 

Dough

  • In a bowl mix all-purpose flour and salt. Add oil and mix until it is well incorporated into the flour. Add water and knead into firm dough. Wrap in clingfilm and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Filling

  • Pulse the broccoli in a food processor for few seconds.
  • Heat oil in a non stick pan on a medium heat. Add cumin seeds. When they splutter add onions, garlic and sauté till onions turn golden brown.
  • Add red chili powder, paprika and dry mango powder. Stir well for a couple of minutes.
  • Add broccoli and cook until tender. Stir in mashed potatoes and garam masala and cook for 4-5 minutes Season with salt and garnish with coriander leaves.
  • Cool to room temperature.

Assembly and Frying

  • Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll into a disc and cut at the center to make two halves and apply water on the edges. Shape the dough into cones and stuff the mixture into the cone. Brush plain water around the top edge and seal shut.
  • In a frying pan add oil, bring the heat to medium, once the oil is hot gently slide the samosa. Now reduce the heat and fry till golden brown on all the sides. Once done, lift it from the oil and drain on paper towel and serve immediately.
