Indulge in Irresistible Potato Twisted Samosas

Get ready to embark on a culinary adventure with a unique twist on the traditional samosa.

These delectable treats take the beloved flavors of samosas and transform them into a mesmerizing, visually stunning delight.

With a crunchy exterior and a flavorful potato filling, these twisted samosas are a perfect fusion of creativity and taste.

The star ingredient of these samosas is the humble potato, which takes on a whole new level of deliciousness in this recipe.

The potatoes are boiled until tender, then mashed and infused with an array of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala.

This blend of spices creates a vibrant and fragrant filling that will tantalize your taste buds.

But what sets these samosas apart is their unique twisted shape.

Rather than the traditional triangular samosa, these treats are beautifully twisted into an intricate pattern, adding an element of visual appeal to the culinary experience.

The twisted samosas not only look impressive but also provide a delightful crunch with every bite.

Ingredients:

For the filling:

• 3 medium-sized potatoes, boiled and mashed
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 green chilies, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ginger paste
• 1 teaspoon garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (optional, for added heat)
• Salt to taste
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

For the dough:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• Water, as needed

For frying:

• Vegetable oil for deep frying

Instructions:

1. In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Then add chopped onions and green chilies. Sauté until the onions turn golden brown.
2. Add ginger paste and garlic paste to the pan. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
3. Add turmeric powder, garam masala, and red chili powder (if using). Mix well and cook for another minute.
4. Add the mashed potatoes to the pan. Season with salt and mix everything together, ensuring the spices are evenly distributed. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let the filling cool down.
5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add oil and mix until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add water, a little at a time, and knead the dough until it becomes smooth and pliable. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
6. Divide the dough into small lemon-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin rectangular shape.
7. Cut the rolled-out dough into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.
8. Take one strip of dough and gently twist it around a bamboo skewer or thin stick, spiraling it along the length. Remove the skewer, leaving behind the twisted dough strip. Repeat this process with the remaining strips.
9. Take a twisted dough strip and wrap it around itself, creating a spiral cone shape. Press the end of the strip gently to seal it. Repeat this step with all the twisted dough strips.
10. Fill each cone-shaped dough with a spoonful of the potato filling. Press the open end of the cone gently to seal it.
11. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer over medium heat. Carefully place the twisted samosas into the hot oil, a few at a time. Fry until they turn golden brown and crispy.
12. Remove the samosas from the oil and drain them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.

Your unique potato twisted samosas are now ready to be served!

Enjoy them as a delightful snack or appetizer, and savor the combination of the crispy twisted dough and the flavorful potato filling.
