Instructions of Bread Samosa Recipe

Step 1: Prepare the Pounded Masala

Roast the Spices: Heat a pan on low flame and dry roast coriander seeds, cumin seeds, black pepper, and fennel seeds until they smell aromatic.

Grind the Spices: Let the spices cool and then pound them coarsely using a mortar and pestle or grind lightly. Set the pounded masala aside.

 

Step 2: Make the Stuffing

Heat Oil: In a pan, heat 1 tbsp of oil and add 1 tsp of cumin seeds. Let them splutter.

Add Aromatics: Add 1 tsp chopped garlic, 1 tsp green chilli, and ½ tsp hing. Sauté until you smell a nice aroma.

Add Spices: Stir in 1 tbsp of the pounded masala, ½ tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp coriander powder, 1 tsp red chilli powder, and ½ tsp garam masala. Sauté for a few seconds.

Cook the Peas: Add ½ cup green peas and a little water. Cover the pan and cook until the peas soften.

Add Potatoes and Seasoning: Mash 2 boiled potatoes into the mixture. Add ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp amchur powder, and ¼ tsp tartri for tanginess. Mix well.

Final Mix: Stir in 1 tbsp chopped coriander and ½ cup paneer dices. Mix gently and remove from heat. Let the stuffing cool.

 

Step 3: Prepare the Bread Wrappers

Trim and Flatten: Trim the edges of the bread slices and roll each slice lightly with a rolling pin to flatten them.

Cut the Bread: Cut each flattened slice diagonally to form two triangular halves.

 

Step 4: Assemble and Shape the Samosas

Seal the Edges: Take a bread triangle and apply a little water on its edges to help it stick.

Form a Cone: Fold the triangle into a cone shape, sealing the edges with water.

Fill and Close: Stuff the cone with the prepared filling and seal the open edge tightly by pressing with your fingers.

 

Step 5: Fry the Bread Samosas

Heat Oil for Frying: In a deep pan, heat oil for deep frying.

Fry the Samosas: Gently slide the prepared samosas into the hot oil and fry until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Drain Excess Oil: Remove the samosas and place them on a kitchen towel to drain extra oil.

 

Step 6: Serve

Plate the Samosas: Serve the crispy bread samosas hot.

Enjoy with Dips: Enjoy the samosas with mint chutney or tamarind sauce.

 

About the Recipe

The Bread Samosa Recipe is a fun twist on the regular samosa. Instead of making dough, I use bread slices. I cut the bread into triangles and use water to stick the pieces together. This simple trick makes the Bread Samosa Recipe easy to fold and seal.

For the filling in the Bread Samosa Recipe, I use mashed boiled potatoes and green peas. I add a special spice mix made from toasted cumin, coriander, fennel, and black pepper. I also add a pinch of turmeric, red chili powder, and a little citric acid or amchur for a tangy taste. Finally, I mix in chopped coriander and paneer. This filling makes the Bread Samosa Recipe very tasty.

 

Cooking Tips

One important tip for the Bread Samosa Recipe is to use water to stick the bread slices together. This helps the samosas stay sealed while frying. I always sprinkle a little water on the bread before folding.

Another tip for the Bread Samosa Recipe is to check the oil temperature. The oil should be medium hot. If the oil is too cold, the bread will soak up too much oil. If it is too hot, the Bread Samosa Recipe may burn. I fry the samosas for 3-4 minutes until they are golden and crispy.

Also, I make sure the filling in the Bread Samosa Recipe is not too wet. I cook the filling until it starts to stick to the pan. This way, the filling stays inside the Bread Samosa Recipe without making the bread soggy.
