Samosas from Moosewood Cookbook, New Revised Edition by Mollie Katzen

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Raita; Spicy eggplant relish

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I thought these were only okay. They're a bit bland. You need dipping sauce of some sort to make them interesting. The dough was definitely unimpressive. I had twice as much filling as I had dough. The filling was really the best part. I was trying to keep my daughter from eating the filling before we got the dough made. Strangely enough, it had the juice of half a lemon in it (not sure where the apple cider vinegar comes in from the Eat Your Books list of ingredients). I've found that the Moosewood cookbook has a lot of lemon juice in odd places. Really, the filling is the best thing about it. Oh. Also. Be sure to notice that the filling ingredients call for COOKED potatoes, carrots, and peas. So cooking all those at the same time in the beginning is really your best course of action. I'll try a different recipe for samosas the next time.

    I love the filling recipe. Very adaptable, for example you can use powdered ginger if you don't have fresh. Extra spice can be added and the lemon juice heightens the other flavours. I usually serve with a couple of dipping sauces including a cilantro chutney. I don't use the dough recipe, instead I use kittencal's from the Internet. These were enjoyed by friends as a casual meal; kids especially really liked them.
