SAMOSAS AND WRAPPER RECIPE
I adopted this recipe and changed it up a bit to make it more authentic. I lived in India for more than 5 years and I love Indian food. I was really pleased with the outcome of this recipe. This recipe is a bit time consuming, but it's well worth the effort.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and 2 minced garlic cloves; cook and stir about 5 minutes or until onion is tender.
- 2. Add remaining filling ingredients and cook until potatoes are tender. NOTE: you can substitute fresh carrots and frozen peas with a cup of frozen peas and carrots. I do this instead of dicing and cooking carrots.
- 3. Season to taste with salt, if desired. Please taste prior to salting. I find no need for additional salt in this filling.
- 4. You can use wonton or egg roll wrappers to make your samosas or you can make the traditional wrappers. Frying is the same for all. Heat your oil (vegetable, peanut, your choice) to 350 F. Fry samosas for approximately 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. I drain my samosas on newspaper covered with paper towels.
- 5. TO MAKE YOUR OWN SAMOSA WRAPPERS... Mix all ingredients (flour, salt, oil, ajwain) except water. Add water a little at a time, kneading well until you get a soft pliable dough. Roll into a ball, cover with moist cloth and allow dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- 6. TO MAKE THE SAMOSAS USING YOUR OWN WRAPPERS... Make small balls of dough and roll into a circle 4"-5" diameter. Cut circle in half to make 2 semicircles. Take 1 semicircle, fold like a cone on the straight edge. Use water to seal the seam. Spoon filling into cone and fold the round side over the opening, again using water to seal.
