1
Lightly mix together flour, oil, salt, and carom seeds until crumbly.
-
2
Add water bit by bit until the mixture becomes moist and kneadable.
-
3
Knead the samosa dough for 5-10 minutes (longer if you want the samosa to be soft and crispy). Smack the dough, kill the dough, punch the dough, rip the dough, go ahead!
-
4
Once soft and elastic-like, place the dough in either a bowl covered with glad rap, or a zip lock plastic bag.
-
5
Leave it to set while you make the filling.
-
6
Mash your pre-boiled skinless potatoes if you haven't already, and add coriander (optional) and the green chili. Mix. If you are a person who cannot stand the spiciness or heat, I recommend you omit the green chili.
-
7
Add turmeric, chili powder, salt/pepper, chili flakes and slowly fold.
-
8
Finish off your filling by adding in your shredded PRE-BOILED chicken. One shred should be no bigger than three peas. Mix and place aside.
-
9
Fetch your dough, remove packaging, and divide into five spheres. Roll in dough.
-
10
Get one ball of dough and roll with a rolling pin until as big as your average hand/palm. Cut in half.
-
11
In the middle of one half, place your filling. Around 1 tablespoon or a little more will do.
-
12
Bring one edge, to the other. Repeat with the open edge. You should have something looking like a half pentagon half triangle.
-
13
Close all your edges super tight, and fold where needed. If you skip this step, your filling will be an oily mess. Try to match the shape of a samosa.
-
14
Repeat with the rest of dough, using one ball for two samosas.
-
15
Deepfry until bubbly and very slightly golden.
-
16
Serve with tomato sauce, or chutney!
