Samosas
I can’t think of a single person I know that doesn’t love Samosas! I like to use Chicken mince over Lamb mince because I prefer the flavour overall. Bonus – Air fried samosas taste just as delicious as deep fried samosas.

Method
-
Step 1
In a pan over medium heat, saute the oil and add the onions, garlic, ginger and green chilli. Fry for 5 minutes until very light golden
-
Step 2
Add all the spices and salt, then fry for a minute before stirring in the mince. Cover and cook on low for 45 minutes, or till the meat is cooked. It may seem like a long time but the mince needs to be dried out
-
Step 3
Uncover and if there is any water remaining, keep the mixture on the heat until it dries out as much as possible
-
Step 4
Add in the chopped coriander and leave to cool
-
Step 5
Make a paste from the flour and water and set aside
-
Step 6
Carefully strip out one sheet from the pastry bundle and lay it straight
-
Step 7
Cover the remaining pastry with a damp muslin cloth
-
Step 8
Place a small portion of the samosa mixture onto the left corner. Fold into a triangle and continue to turn until there is a thin rectangular bit of pastry left hanging
-
Step 9
Seal the samosa by adding a little paste to the remaining edge, then fold and press in gently
-
Step 10
Repeat the process for the rest of the samosas
-
Step 11
Preheat the grill using the Air Fryer function for 5 minutes on high. Brush the samosas with oil
-
Step 12
Arrange 7 – 8 samosas in the basket and cook for 15 – 18 minutes or until golden brown turning in between. Repeat the process for the remaining Samosas
