How to make Matar Samosa Recipe -Green Pea Samosa 

  1. To begin making the Matar Samosa Recipe first, mix together half a teaspoon of salt into the flour
  2. ,
  3. Rub ghee or vegetable shortening into the flour mixture, with your fingers until it resembles loose bread crumbs
  4. ,
  5. Gradually add water, slowly, and knead to make a soft but firm dough
  6. ,
  7. Roll the dough into a ball, cover with a moist muslin cloth and keep aside
  8. ,
  9. The next step is to make the filling
  10. ,
  11. In a kadai or heavy bottomed pan, warm the ghee, add the jeera and allow it to crackle and tip in the chilli paste
  12. ,
  13. Saute these together for a minute
  14. ,
  15. Add peas followed by all the other spices and cook till the pea mixture becomes dry and all the water has dried up
  16. ,
  17. Season with salt and cook again for 2-3 minutes
  18. ,
  19. Set the peas mixture aside to cool down so it is easier to handle when shaping the samosas
  20. ,
  21. Make a flour paste, by combining the flour and water
  22. ,
  23. To begin making the samosa cases, divide the dough into small balls and roll them into thin circles
  24. ,
  25. Cut each rolled-out circle into two halves by running your knife down the center, so you have 2 semi-circles for each disc

  33. Heat oil for deep frying in a kadai on medium heat
  34. ,
  35. Deep fry the matar samosas in hot oil till they are golden brown
  36. ,
  37. Try not to fry too many together as it will crowd the kadai and alter the cooking time

  40. ,
  41.  Matar Samosa  can be served with a dollop of Dhaniya Pudina Chutney and khajoor imli chutney or tomato ketchup, along with masala chai in the evening
