Whole Wheat Baked Samosi!

1

I really wanted to make this long back, finally i tried and it came to be a successful one.
Just give it a try..and I am sure you all will relish than any fried samosa.

You need:
2 Cups whole wheat flour
Salt to taste
1/2 T spoon ajawain (oregano seeds)
2 T spoon oil.

For filling:
3 Boiled potatoes
1 Chopped green chilli
Chopped coriander leaves
Salt to taste
1/4 Tb spoon ginger (crated)
2 Tb spoon oil

Method:
Make dough out of wheat flour. and keep it aside for 15-20 min.

Mix all ingredients  for filling and cook them in oil with lil turmeric powder for 10 mins. Keep it aside and let it cool down.

Roll out small round chapati out of dough. Cut them half from diameter. Fold the halves into a cone shape.
Fill the potato mix in cone (gently). Using water from finger close the edges of the cone.

Apply lil on baking tray and keep it for 30 min at 200 C in preheat oven. Keep checking in intervals. You might have to increase the time from 30 min to 1 hr, it depends upon the power of the oven. For me it took 1 hr.
If you are required to set for an hour and I would suggest to keep the samosi flipping in every 15 min.

Serve hot with sauce or green chutney. I can bet.. You ll fall in love with it.
