To Make the Dough:

To Assemble the Samosas:

2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece into a thin, circular shape.
3. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle.
4. Fold the dough over the filling to form a triangle.
5. Crimp the edges to seal.

To Fry the Samosas:

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large Dutch oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Carefully drop the samosas into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on all sides.
3. Drain the samosas on paper towels before serving.

Tips:

- For a crispier samosa, fry in batches and make sure the oil is hot before adding the samosas.
- To bake the samosas instead, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush the samosas with oil and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- You can use any vegetables you like for the filling, such as peas, corn, or beans.
- Serve the samosas with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tamarind chutney or green chutney.
