NIGERIAN BEEF SAMOSA

Ok so I know this is not the traditional dough used to make samosa, but I had extra wrappers remaining and decided to make samosa and I find this is a much easier (no need to go through the hassle of making the dough from scratch)

Ingredients
  • 2 Medium Irish Potatoes
  • 4 Carrots
  • 100g Minced Meat
  • 3 Spring Onions
  • 1 tsp All Purpose Seasoning
  • 1/2 cup Green Peas
  • 1/4 Cabbage
  • Vegetable oil
  • 1 Stock Cube
  • 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper (optional)
  • 1 tsp Ginger
  • 1 tsp Garlic
  • Spring Roll Pastry
  • 1 tsp Flour
  • 2 tsp Water
How to prepare:
- Wash, clean and peel cabbage, carrots, spring onions and potatoes. Dice potatoes and spring onions and grate carrots and cabbage finely. Boil the potatoes until soft if using fresh peas boil them also.

- Heat up a little oil in a deep frying pan add spring onions grated garlic and ginger fry for a few minutes, add the minced meat stock cubes, cayenne pepper and all purpose seasoning and fry until meat is ready.

- Add peas, carrot, cabbage and potatoes to minced meat, mix properly and set aside to cool completely.

- To wrap the samosa create a "binder" by mixing flour and water to a smooth paste, cut the pastry diagonally (each sheet  makes two samosa). Fold into a cone like shape, fill pocket created with the samosa filling spread a little of the binder over the opening and press together to seal tightly.

-Fry in the same way as spring roll and enjoy.
