Time 56m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons pine nuts
½ pound ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
salt and ground black pepper to taste
5 (12-inch) spring roll wrappers
5 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pine nuts; cook and stir until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add beef; cook, stirring to break up clumps, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in onion; cook and stir until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat; season with cinnamon, allspice, salt, and pepper. Stir in pine nuts.
  • Cut each spring roll wrapper into three 12x4-inch rectangles. Brush each rectangle lightly with melted butter.
  • Place a heaping teaspoonful of the beef mixture near the short end of 1 rectangle. Fold 1 corner over to enclose the filling and form a triangle. Continue to fold until the rectangle has been folded into a triangular packet, sealing any holes to prevent filling from oozing out. Dab cold water on the outside fold to seal sambusa closed.
  • Repeat with remaining spring roll rectangles and beef mixture. Arrange sambusa on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crisp and golden, about 25 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sambusas turned out really dry. I think I may have overcooked them.

The sambusas were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was good.

These sambusas were delicious! The dough was flaky and the filling was savory. I served them with a yogurt sauce and they were perfect.

I'm not a huge fan of sambusas, but this recipe changed my mind. The meat filling was so juicy and flavorful, and the dough was perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making these again.

This sambusa recipe was a hit! The dough was easy to work with and the filling was flavorful. I added a bit of cumin and coriander to the filling for extra flavor.
