be very careful when shaping the samosas. they fall apart quickly. make sure to seal very well and unlike hamentashen, do not leave an opening or all the stuffing will come out!
Will 1/4 cup of flour really make 16 or is that a misprint?
We have a great kosher Indian restaurant in Stamford where I go for the most delicious samosas — I’ve never made them myself, but this recipe is an inspiration. Such a delicious snack or first course for dinner. And nice for vegetarian dinner too.
This dough recipe did not work at all. Was it a misprint?
You are right it looks way off, I believe it is supposed to be 2 1/4 cups flour, I will change it.
