Tips:

To make the perfect samosa dough, use a combination of all-purpose flour and semolina flour. Semolina flour gives the dough a slight crunch and a golden brown color.
Make sure the dough is well-rested before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from tearing.
Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into even squares. This will help ensure that the samosas cook evenly.
Don't overstuff the samosas. Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and seal.
To prevent the samosas from sticking to the baking sheet, grease it lightly with oil or use parchment paper.
Bake the samosas until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that the filling is cooked through.
Serve the samosas hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
