Method:

1-Sift the flour. Add the other ingredients for the pastry and make a stiff dough with small amount of water. Keep kneading so that it becomes very smooth. Keep aside covered with a moist cloth.

2-Heat oil in a pan and fry the onions and garlic till the onion rings change colour. Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients for the filling.

3-Make small balls from the dough. Roll the ball into a disc about 5” or 6” in diameter. Cut the disc into two halves. Pick up the disc and fold to form a cone by joining the cut edges with a smear of milk. Add the filling to the cone and then close the open end by joining the edges with a smear of milk.

4-Heat oil in a fry pan. Deep fry the Samosas till golden brown. Serve with Tomato sauce or Mint chutney.
