Potato Samosas
Created by: Chef Sanjiv Dhar, Kabob & Curry, Providence, RI
Yield: 24 Servings
Portion Size: 2 Samosas
......................
• 2 pounds peeled and cubed hash brown potatoes (refrigerated or fozen)
• Salt (as needed)
• Water (as needed)
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons cumin seeds
• 1 pound, 8 ounces finely chopped onions
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons garam masala
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup water
• 24 flour tortillas (8-inch) halved
• Vegetable oil
1. Cook potatoes, covered, in boiling salted water 10 to 20 minutes or until tender. Drain.
2. In large saucepan or rondo, heat oil. Toast cumin seeds 15 seconds, stirring frequently. Add onions and ginger. Sauté 5 minutes or until golden. Add potatoes and remaining ingredients. Cook 5 minutes, stirring continuously and mashing potatoes slightly. Remove from heat. Cover; chill.
3. Stir together flour and water to make a slurry; brush along straight edge of tortilla. Roll to form a cone, with point along cut edge of tortilla. Fill with about 2 tablespoons potato mixture, pressing down. Fold the seamed flap down; brush with slurry. Fold down remaining flap to finish. Deep-fry in hot oil (375º F) until golden brown. Drain and serve.
Fresh Potato Alternative: Peeled and diced russet potatoes can be used in place of prepared potatoes.
Convenience Tip: Samosa filling can be made up to 48 hours in advance. Fill tortilla to order up to 24 hours in advance. Cover and chill: deep-fry just before service.

Many thanks Jean, saved to favourites. Like Roxanne I love spuddies to, anyway, any how. This site looks like a very rich mine of spuddery.

The website seems to have some great, interesting recipes. Thanks, Jean! I've never met a potato I didn't love.
I can't tell from the picture if it's herbs or peas, but I usually add peas to my samosas.
