Ingredients

• 2 potatoes, boiled and mashed
• 1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 green chili, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
• 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
• Salt to taste
• 12 store-bought samosa wrappers
• 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, peas, onion, green chili, ginger-garlic paste, cumin seeds, coriander powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, red chili powder, cilantro, and salt. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
3. Take a samosa wrapper and place it on a clean surface. Fold it in half to form a triangle, overlapping the edges. Seal the edges with a little water to ensure the samosa does not open during baking.
4. Place a tablespoon of the potato filling in the center of the folded samosa wrapper. Fold the bottom corner of the triangle upwards, covering the filling. Continue folding in a triangular shape until you reach the end of the wrapper. Seal the edges with water.
5. Repeat the process with the remaining samosa wrappers and filling.
6. Place the samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each samosa with melted butter or oil to ensure they turn golden brown while baking.
7. Bake the samosas in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
8. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. Serve the baked samosas hot with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.
10. Enjoy these delicious and healthier baked samosas!
