Ingredients
- 4 oz (113 g) Lean ground beef (93% lean)
- 1 tbsp (16 g) Peanut butter, natural
- 0.25 cup (40 g) Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp (2 g) Ginger, fresh, minced
- 1 clove (3 g) Garlic, minced
- 0.5 tsp (1 g) Coriander powder
- 0.5 tsp (1 g) Cumin powder
- 0.25 tsp (0.5 g) Cayenne pepper
- 0.25 tsp (1.5 g) Salt
- 2 sheets (30 g) Samosa pastry sheets (store-bought)
- 1 tsp (5 g) Water (for sealing)
- 0.5 tsp (2.5 g) Olive oil (for brushing)
Method
- 01Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess fat.
- 02Add the peanut butter, chopped onion, minced ginger, minced garlic, coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt to the skillet with the beef. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onions are softened and the spices are fragrant.
- 03Remove the filling from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- 04Lay out one samosa pastry sheet. Place about 1.5 tablespoons of the beef filling near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling to create a triangle, then continue folding the pastry along the filling to form a cone or triangle shape. Use a little water to seal the edges securely.
- 05Repeat with the remaining pastry sheets and filling.
- 06Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or an air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- 07Lightly brush the samosas with olive oil.
- 08Place the samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (for oven) or in the air fryer basket. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or air fry for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.
