Samosa Dough
Use this dough for assembling our Potato Samosas.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 2/3 cup water
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
Directions
In a small bowl, whisk together the oil and water. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder. Stir in two-thirds of the oil-water mixture, then add more of the mixture, 1 Tbs. at a time, until the dough is just moistened and comes together in a ball.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 1 minute. Form the dough into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rope about 18 inches long and cut into 8 equal pieces. Form each piece into a ball and flatten into a disk. Roll out each into a 6-inch round, dusting often with flour. Cut each round into quarters. Heat the dough, then fill and fry the samosas as directed in the Potato Samosas recipe. Makes 32.
