2 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped

2 tsp Curry Powder

1 Potato, finely diced

1 Carrot, finely diced

220 g Frozen Peas

Salt, to taste

100 ml Vegetable Stock

225 cm Plain Flour

80 ml Water

Method

For the Filling:

Heat the oil in a frying pan

Add the onion, garlic and curry powder then fry until soft.

Add the vegetables and seasoning stir well until coated.

Add the stock cover and simmer for 30 minutes until cooked.

For the Pastry:

Mix flour and salt into a bowl.

Make a well into the centre and add the oil and enough water to make firm dough.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and roll into a ball.

Cover in plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Divide the pastry into 12 equal pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball and roll out into a circle of 15 cm.

Divide this circle into two equal pieces with a knife.

Brush each edge with a little water and form a cone shape around your fingers sealing the dampened edge.

Fill the cases with a tablespoon of your chosen mixture and press the two dampened edges together to seal the top of the cone.

Deep fry the samosas in hot oil until crisp and brown take out and drain on a paper towel.
