Knead a smooth dough using all the ingredients listed under it. Cover and keep aside for 15 minutes. Use water only if required.
Heat oil and add mustard seeds first followed by the chopped onion. Add rest of the spices and saute it well until done. Add green peas too. Adjust salt accordingly. Lastly add mashed potatoes and mix well.
Garnish with chopped coriander and set aside. Divide the dough into equal sized balls. Roll a disc and cut into two from the centre.
Make a triangular pocket and fill it up with the potato stuffing and seal the edges properly.
Deep fry them in hot oil on a medium high heat until golden and crisp.
Serve with green chutney at tea-time. Lovely choice for your families and guests this Ramadan. I have made these yummy samosas for iftaar during this festive season. And they turned out really yum.
A samosa recipe with black seeds makes all the difference here. These flaky and crispy beauties are loved by every Indian no matter from which ever State they hail from. Instead of cumin and carom seeds used in the dough generally, i have used black seeds in it's place that are not only healthy but loaded with a good lot of medicinal value too. Improves overall immune health, lowers blood pressure levels, useful in treating eczema etc, the list is endless. Infact i strongly recommend you all to use a teaspoon of these seeds in your daily chapati dough therefore making it a habit.
