Bread Samosa by Wairimu Eats

Unique take on samosas using soft bread instead of traditional pastry for a delightful twist.

Serves: 4Prep: 20 minCook: 25 min

Ingredients

  • 8 slices bread (from @supaloafofficial)
  • 250g (1/2 lb) minced meat
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt (to taste)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the minced meat to the pan and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Stir in garam masala, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Remove the filling from heat and let it cool slightly until ready to serve.
  5. Prepare the bread: Trim the crusts from each slice of bread until ready to serve.
  6. Lightly flatten each bread slice with a rolling pin until ready to serve.
  7. Place a portion of the meat filling onto one half of each flattened bread slice until ready to serve.
  8. Fold the other half of the bread over the filling to create a pocket. Press the edges firmly to seal over medium heat until heated through, about 5 min.
  9. Use the beaten egg to help seal the edges if needed, ensuring no filling can escape until ready to serve.
  10. Heat oil for frying in a deep pan or pot over medium-high heat to about 170°C (340°F).
  11. Carefully fry the bread samosas in batches until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
  12. Remove the fried samosas with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels over medium heat until heated through, about 5 min.
