Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup water (more if needed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup boiled and mashed potatoes
  • 1/2 cup green peas
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix whole wheat flour, salt, and olive oil. Gradually add water to form a dough. Knead for 5 minutes and let it rest.
  2. In another bowl, combine mashed potatoes, green peas, cumin seeds, garam masala, and turmeric powder. Mix well to combine.
  3. Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a thin circle. Cut the circle in half to form two semi-circles.
  4. Take one semi-circle, fold it into a cone, and seal the edge. Fill the cone with the potato mixture and seal the top.
  5. Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Lightly spray the samosas with oil and arrange them in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  6. Air fry for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning halfway through.

Pro tips for maximum crisp

  • Ensure the dough is rested well for easier rolling.
  • Brush a little water on the edges while sealing for better adhesion.
  • Experiment with fillings like lentils or mixed vegetables for variety.
