Servings: 8
Calories: 171kcal

Ingredients

Dough Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup millet flour
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black onion seed nigella
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons non fat plain yogurt
  • 7 tablespoons water
  • 3 tablespoons ghee

Filling Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon ginger paste
  • 1/4 head of cauliflower chopped
  • 1 cup frozen green peas defrosted
  • 2 cups potatoes cut into small dice
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chile powder cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • non stick spray

Instructions

Let’s first make the filling.

  • Place potatoes in a small pot and add enough water to cover. Cook for 10 minutes on high heat, until just done.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic and cook until onions are softened. Add ginger paste and fry for 1 minute. Add cauliflower and spices and cook for about 8 minutes.
  • Add peas and potatoes and stir to combine. Cook until peas are heated through.
  • Add cilantro and stir to combine.
  • Taste and adjust salt, if necessary. Set aside to cool.

Now let’s make the samosa dough.

  • Using a food processor or spice/coffee grinder, grind the oats to a fine powder.
  • Transfer the oat powder to a large bowl and combine with the millet flour, whole wheat flour, salt, onion seed, baking soda and all purpose flour.
  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, water and ghee and mix well.
  • Add this to flour mixture and mix by hand until you have a soft dough.
  • Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 F.
  • Spray 2 cookie sheets with non stick spray. (Even if you use parchment or waxed paper still spray the paper with non stick spray. This will ensure the samosas get a nice golden brown color on both sides.)
  • Now it’s time to put together the samosas.
  • Take a ball of dough and roll out to a 6-inch circle as thin as possible. The dough is soft, but not sticky so it is very easy to roll thin. Using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife, cut in half.
  • Place a few tablespoons of filling on one half and fold over so that you have a point on the top.
  • Fold over the other side and the bottom, using water to seal the edges.
  • Place on prepared cookie sheet. Repeat until all of the dough has been used.
  • Brush the tops with milk and bake for 20 minutes.
