índían food lovers, í ask you: what could be better than a sumptuous platter of hot, crísp, spícy samosas? How about a sumptuous platter of hot, crísp, spícy samosas you made yourself, wíthout assístance from a restaurant or frozen foods aísle, baked ínstead of deep fríed and low ín fat, sodíum and cholesterol? These are so good you’ll want to share, but save plenty for yourself. You wíll feel awesome about treatíng yourself to these.

íf you’re faírly new to índían food or you fínd chílí or jalapeno-level heat a líttle much, the seasoníngs í’ve índícated should work well for you. My índían recípes tend to have a crossover aspect to them, as ín, í spíce them ín ways í thínk most people can totally handle and enjoy, and í don’t add anythíng you can’t fínd ín supermarkets. However, íf you’re hardcore when ít comes to hot n’ spícy, play wíth the flavors, add more of your favorítes, and consíder throwíng ín some hot chílís along wíth the vegetables.

These spícy vegetable samosas are an easy treat for índían food lovers! Hot, crísp and delícíous – and no fryíng!


íngredíents
2 Tbs olíve oíl
Spíces:
  • 1 tsp red or yellow curry powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 1/4 tsp smoked papríka
  • 1 tsp cumín
  • 1/2 tsp chílí powder
  • a scant 1/8 tsp - 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, dependíng on how hot and spícy you líke your samosas (í go wíth a level 1/8 tsp, whích ís plenty hot for me)

Vegetables:
  • 1 medíum oníon, chopped fíne
  • 1 medíum carrot, chopped fíne
  • 2 medíum potatoes, peeled and fínely díced
  • 2 medíum red bell peppers, díced
  • optíonal - 1 or more red or green chílí peppers to taste, seeded and chopped fíne about
  • 1 Tbs fresh gínger, grated (can substítute about 1/4 tsp dríed ground gínger)
  • 1 tsp garlíc powder
  • 1 cup water
  • about 1 1/2 cups green peas, fresh or frozen and thawed
  • 10 egg or spríng roll wrappers (to make vegan, look ín the freezer sectíon of an Asían market for egg-free wrappers)


ínstructíons
  1. Combíne the oíl and spíces ín a large nonstíck skíllet over medíum low heat. Stír the spíces around ín the oíl for about 2 mínutes. Add the vegetables, raíse the heat to medíum and stír-fry for about 5 mínutes.
  2. Stír ín the gínger, garlíc powder and water. Cover the skíllet and símmer for about 10 mínutes, stírríng occasíonally. You may need to turn the heat down a bít mídway through the símmeríng. Stír ín the peas and cook for a few more mínutes untíl they're heated through. Take the skíllet off the heat and let the samosa fíllíng come to room temperature. You can speed thís up by transferríng the fíllíng to another contaíner.
  3. When you're ready to fíll your samosas, posítíon two racks ín the míddle of the oven and heat ít to 375. Gíve two cookíe sheets a pretty good coatíng of nonstíck, and have a líttle contaíner of water, a pastry brush and your wrappers ready.
  4. As you wrap the samosas, arrange them on the cookíe sheets. You should be able to get 5 on each sheet wíthout them overlappíng. Thoroughly douse them wíth more nonstíck spray to help them brown, then pop them ínto the oven for about 8 mínutes. Get them out, turn them over to brown on the other síde, and return them to the oven, swítchíng rack posítíons, for another 8 mínutes.
  5. You can eat them straíght out of the oven, let them cool a bít fírst (whích í líke), or let them cool completely and then reheat them whenever you líke. Reheat them at 350 for 5-8 mínutes.
