Who doesn’t love samosas? Even though all of us feel a wee itch of guilt while biting into a Punjabi samosa, the rush of fun, excitement and memories that it brings back totally overrides such negative emotions! We have modified the deep fried Punjabi Samosa recipe to a Veg healthy Samosa made from whole wheat flour.
These baked samosa are healthier than regular ones, but every bite remains as exciting as ever. It is also quite convenient, because you can bake the samosas at one shot instead of deep-frying them few at a time.
To make Punjabi baked samosa , first we will prepare the outer covering. Combine whole wheat flour, ghee and salt together in a deep bowl and add enough water to make a firm dough. Ghee or moeen will help in getting the covering crusty. Keep aside covered with a wet muslin cloth or a plate for 15 minutes. Further, for the baked samosa stuffing, heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan and add the cumin seeds. Add the potatoes and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the ginger-green chilli paste to enhance the taste, salt, dry mango powder, chilli powder, green peas coriander, mix well and sauté for another 2 minutes. You can add chaat masala if you do not have amchur powder. Cool the mixture completely. Next, to proceed making baked samosa, divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Roll a portion into a ball and flatten them between your palms. Roll out a portion of the dough into an oval of 4 by 6 using a little whole wheat flour for rolling. Divide each chapati into 2 halves, make a cone from each half. Stuff each cone with approx. 1 tbsp of the stuffing. Seal the edges carefully using a little water. Arrange them on a greased baking tray, brush 2 tsp of oil evenly over all the samosas and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180ºc (360ºf ) for 15 minutes. Turn them over and bake again for 15 minutes. Serve the baked samosa immediately with pudina chutney.
We have also replaced maida with whole wheat flour to improve the health quotient. To make the baked samosas healthier, cut the potatoes amount and replace with green peas. You need to keep one thing in mind though – these samosas must be served immediately as they get soft and soggy after a while.
So, once you turn them over half way through baking, prepare the chutney and put the kettle on the stove. As soon as the Baked Samosas are ready, serve them with tangy Green Chutney and garam Chai.
