1

Make the dough by mixing flour, cumin, oil, and salt. Stir it, and gradually add water. Knead the dough until fully combined. Make it a firm dough. Cover and rest it.

2

 In a pan fry ginger, garlic, and green chili paste. Let it sizzle, then add onions and sauté them until translucent.

3

Next, add ground spices and stir for a minute until the spices are combined and toasted.

4

Add peas and carrots to the pan, and stir fry for a few minutes.

5

 Then add potato, sugar, and cilantro to the pan. Mix well.

6

Cover the pan with a lid and allow the filling to cook for 5-7 until the vegetables are soft and cooked through. Keep the heat low and stir at intervals as needed.

7

 Remove from heat. Now, with the help of a potato masher, mash the potato so the filling has a more homogenized masala-like texture. Do a taste test and adjust salt and spices if needed.

8

 Let the filling cool enough to handle, then divide the filling into 12 portions. Set aside.

9

1Divide the dough into 6 small balls of the same size.

10

Roll out a dough portion into a circle on a flat surface. Cut the circle in half to form a 2 semi-circle. Place vegetable filling in the center of both semi-circles.

11

Fold both sides of the dough over the filling in the center forming a triangle. Apply water along the edges of the dough to seal it. Then seal the bottom. 

12

Heat oil in a wok and deep fry vegetable samosas on medium until golden brown and crispy. The samosa will take 4-5 minutes to fry. So be patient and let the pastry turn nicely golden.
