Chicken Samosa

Wanted to try these when I saw this here. Having a hard core non-vegetarian husband has helped me to try a variety of non-vegetarian dishes. I wanted to try samosas since a long time , this was my first attempt and am glad that it turned out to be delicious !

Recipe Source : Ria with slight changes

What's in it:

For the wrapper dough:

• All purpose flour : 1 cup
• Baking powder : a pinch
• Water : as needed
• Salt : to taste

For the filling:

• Chicken : 1 cup boiled and shredded
• Onions : 1 large finely chopped
• Garlic : 2 cloves minced
• Pepper powder : 2 tsp
• Salt : to taste
• Garam masala : 1 tsp
• Oil

Let's do it !

1. In a bowl, make a dough using AP flour, water, baking powder and salt. Knead the dough to form a soft mass.
2. Cover with a damp cloth and keep aside.
3. Now, to the filling. Heat some oil in a kadai and add the chopped onions to it.
4. When they are golden brown, add garlic, pepper powder, garam masala and salt and saute well.
5. Add the chicken pieces and blend well.

Assembling the samosa :

1. Divide the dough into small balls. Roll the balls into thin circles.
2. The original recipe calls for cooking the dough circles on a tawa to avoid the raw taste at this stage. I did not do this, but they still tasted fine.
3. Cut the circles into half.
4. Bring together the straight edges and seal them using flour+water mixture.
5. Now forms the cone to which the filling can be spooned in.
6. Once the filling is done, cover the cone by bringing together the open ends and sealing them with flour+water mixture.
7. Like this keep all the samosas shaped up and ready to be fried.
8. Heat oil in a deep kadai. Deep fry the samosas and drain them on a paper towel.
9. Serve hot with tomato ketchup.
