I Want Sa'more Samosas!




Yesterday I had a work potluck to go to, and I wanted to make something tasty, portable, somewhat impressive, and not too health-foody. Samosas (potato-edamame, from VwaV)! Now, Miss Pickle and I have been talking about making these for a while, but she was away on vacation, so I had to make them all by my lonesome. The whole process took just over 2 hours, but wasn't really difficult, and I'd do it again in a second!



First of all, the dough: knead flour, oil, soymilk, and turmeric



Then, heat some oil in a skillet and toast mustard and cumin seeds. Saute with chopped carrot and onion.


Add chopped ginger and garlic, turmeric, and coriander. I also added a bit of roasted red pepper for colour




Add cooked potato and smush it all together, then add some frozen edamame beans




Filling done! Then, I simply rolled out the dough and cut into circles using a drinking glass, filled the samosas, making a little pocket, and baked them!

I made a giant one and saved it for my lunch today. Delicious!
