Easy samosa recipe with sunlife refined sunflower oil

May 23, 2020

Samosa is a delicious potato-stuffed tea time snack that is not only popular in India, but also all across Asia. According to a popular belief, they find their origin in Middle-east Asia and were brought into the country by merchants. Commonly, they are made of potato-stuffing, but you may add a different filling such as keema to enhance its taste. It is a popular snack that is served everywhere including restaurants, cafes and even during Iftar. So, without further ado, let’s start with the recipe.

Ingredients:
– 1/2 lb potatoes, peeled
– 2 tablespoons oil
– 1/4 small onion, diced
– 1/4 cup green peas, smashed
– 1 tablespoon curry powder
– 1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
– 1 teaspoon sugar
– Salt to taste
– Spring roll wrappers, cut into 3 equal-sized rectangle pieces
– Sunlife Refined Sunflower Oil for deep-frying

Instructions: Boil the potatoes for 10 minutes or until they are completely cooked through. Drain and let cool. Peel off the potato skin and break and mash the potatoes using the back of a spoon. Heat up a skillet and add the oil. Saute the onion until aromatic before adding the potatoes and green peas, curry powder, chilli powder, sugar, and salt. Cook for a few minutes. Remove from the skillet and let cool.

Scoop 1 heaping teaspoon of the filling and place at the top centre part of a piece of wrapper. Brush the outer edges of the wrapper with the oil, fold and form the Samosa into a triangle. Pinch the edges and all corners to make sure they are sealed tight and there is no leakage. Repeat the same until the filling is used up.

Deep fry the samosa at 350°F until golden brown. Remove from the oil using a strainer or slotted spoon, and transfer to a plate. Serve warm.
