Vegetarian Samosa. Traditionally, samosas are a fried Indian snack food, but these easy baked vegetarian samosas can be eaten as an entree, or along with some other vegetarian Indian food sides, such as rice and dal. However, you prefer to eat your Indian samosas, be sure to serve them with a dipping sauce and enjoy your traditional Indian food meal. I have used filo pastry to make my samosa.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and add garbanzo beans. Mix curry paste with apple juice until smooth, then add to skillet. You can have Vegetarian Samosa using 13 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

These little dumplings are stuffed with spiced potatoes, peas, and crunchy peanuts. Place onto the prepared baking tray, then repeat with the remaining ingredients, keeping the samosas covered with a damp tea towel as you go. Fry the samosa on low heat - the most important thing- always fry the samosa on low heat (not high, not medium), that way they will turn crisp. Add the vegetables, seasoning and stir well until coated.

Vegetarian Samosa step by step

Place all the vegetables, water, stock cubes, curry & Turmeric powder into a saucepan and simmer until soft..
Remove the pan from the heat and place the mix into a bowl and slowly add the dried potato powder until it’s thickened. I like to keep it a little moist like a wet mash. Add salt and pepper to taste, then leave to cool..
Take 4 sheets of pastry and cut in half..
There are two ways to fill Samosas, by creating an envelope folding the pastry down into triangles or the way I will show you to get the same effect..
Place a heaped dessert spoonful of cold mixture in the top corner leaving an edge. Fold over the first turn to create your first triangle, then fold again to make another triangle and repeat the pattern until you reach the bottom. Brush with egg white to create the seal on the last turn..
You can also make mini cocktail rolls for party dinner canapés..
Preheat your oil to about 180 or (test with a corner to see if it’s bubbling).
I normally put 2 in at a time because it’s easier to manage, they only require about 30 seconds max on each side, then flip over until both sides are golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on a cooling rack with a catch tray underneath. That’s it, you are ready to serve..
They can be made in advance and reheated in an oven, ideal snack and easy to make. If you like spicy food try adding some chilli to the veg mix prior to cooking. As always, enjoy..

Are these samosas vegetarian or even vegan? These are the best Indian punjabi samosas and they are vegetarian. Infact these samosas are also naturally vegan like a lot of Indian cooking, so if you are looking for vegan festive options, these will please you! Yes, samosas can be baked in general. Transfer to a baking sheet and brush the samosas with the egg wash.
