Meat samosas

(Serves 6)

500 grams of minced beef
1 bouquet of mint leaves
1 onion
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pack of spring roll skin
Cooking oil
1 tablespoon of plain flour

1) Peel and dice the onion
2) Remove the mint leaves from the stem and chop them.
3) Cut the spring roll pack into 4 slabs lengthwise.
4) Add a little water to the plain flour.
5) Heat one tablespoon of cooking oil and fry the meat until cooked. Remove from the fire.
6) Add in the onions and mint leaves.
7) Take two pieces of spring roll skin and fold the sides to get a triangle pouch.
8) Put in one spoon of meat mixture.
9) Fold to get a triangle. Use the flour mixture as ‘glue’ to secure the last flap.
10) Once all the samosas are folded, heat the cooking oil in the pan.
11) Fry the samosas until they turn golden brown.
12) Serve piping hot with chilli sauce or mint sauce.

Personal Tips
You can bake the samosas instead of deep frying. Dab a little oil on both sides of the samosas, lay them on a flat oven tray and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until they turn brown. Remember to flip them over.
Instead of using meat, you can also use vegetables. My kids love the potato version. Here, you just boil the potatoes. Then peel the skin and cut them into small cubes. Then mix with the diced onions and the chopped mint leaves.
