Samosa's for dinner

I should actually call them SaMOOSEsa's because I made it with Moose meat. But I love to eat them! Samosa's are Indian appetizers and are so delicious. If I lived in the Lower 48 I would just buy frozen ones, which you can usually buy at Indian markets or I even found them at Whole Foods stores. But here I have to make them from scratch. The filling is easy to make and there are many different ways to make them. You can make them vegetarian or meat. I prefer meat with potatoes. I found some spring roll wraps here so I didn't have to make the dough by hand.
For the filling
1 pound meat
1 tsp ginger
1 tsp ground cloves
1 TBSP Graham Masala
1 TBSP Curry Powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
3 potatoes diced in to small cubes

Brown meat and add all the spices. Mix well. Let cool. Boil potatoes let cool and mix with meat. Then cut the spring roll wrappers in to triangle halves. using water to make sticky make a cone shape and fill with meat. seal top of triangle. Then fry in oil till crispy and golden brown. Eat and enjoy.

You can add onions, peas, corn and other yummy stuff too.

  1. Do you, by any chance, have a recipe for bhajias? I lost my recipe from RVA's independent living class, and I tried to make them, but failed in a most epic fashion. And only an MK would make an Indian dish in Alaska with moose meat. Love it!!!

  2. Which kind do you mean? Do you mean the potato ones with onions or I think most of it was just having the right batter to fry the stuff. Do you want a recipe for the batter to coat the potatoes, cauliflower and any other veggies. Let me know I will post one!=)
