Method
To Make The Dough :
1. In a mixing bowl take maida, Ajwain, salt,
semolina and hot oil.
2. Blend well with
your fingers. Add cold water and knead to pliable. Knead well till smooth.
Cover with a wet cloth and set aside for 1 hour.
To Make the Filling:
1. Chop onion and
ginger finely. Chop all the other veggies also finely.
2. Steam carrot and
beans and set aside. Boil and peel potato. Either mash or cut the potato into
small pieces.
3. Heat a little
oil in a pan. To this add aniseeds and roast for 10 seconds. Add chopped
onion and ginger. Saute for 3-4 minutes.
4. Add chopped
capsicum and green peas and sauté for another 3-4 minutes. Add the dry
powders and sauté for a while.
5. Add steamed
veggies and mix well, add salt and let it fry on medium flame till the moist
is absorbed.
6. Squeeze lemon
and garnish with coriander leaves and set the filling aside.
To make Samosas:
1. Knead the dough
well and divide it into equal portions
2. Roll the portion
into a circle. Cut the circle into half.
3. Apply little
water to the sides of the semicircle.
Note: There are two ways to make the
samosas.
4. Place a tbsp. of
the filling in between the semicircle. Hold one end of the semicircle and fold/cover
the opposite side. Now hold the other edge of the semicircle and cover/fold
the opposite side. Now fold/cover the bottom side sealing each end.
5. The other way to
make a samosa is to water the ends of the semicircle and to fold it into a
shape of a cone. Fill in the masala and seal the open end of the cone
carefully.
Note: You can freeze the samosas and
then fry them later too.
6. Make the samosas
and deep fry till golden in color.
7. Serve hot samosa
with ketchup and green chutney.
