Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to cut the beef into small pieces. This will help ensure that the beef cooks evenly.
  • If you don't have ground cumin, you can use whole cumin seeds. Just toast them in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes, or until they become fragrant. Then, grind them in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
  • Be careful not to overcook the beef. It should be cooked through, but still tender and juicy.
  • If you're using frozen peas, be sure to thaw them before using.
  • If you don't have a samosa press, you can use a rolling pin to flatten the dough. Just be sure to roll it out evenly, so that the samosas are all the same size.
  • Be careful when frying the samosas. The oil should be hot enough to cook the samosas through, but not so hot that they burn.

Conclusion:

Spicy beef samosas are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they're also a great way to use up leftover beef. With a little planning, you can even make them ahead of time and freeze them. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give these spicy beef samosas a try. You won't be disappointed!
