Mutton samosas are a delicious, savory treat perfect for snacks or gatherings. Here’s a simple recipe to make crispy, flavorful samosas at home.

Ingredients (Makes 10-12 samosas):
For the Filling:

• 250g mutton (minced or finely chopped)

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped

• 2 green chilies, finely chopped

• 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste

• 1 tsp cumin seeds

• 1 tsp coriander powder

• 1 tsp garam masala

• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder

• 1 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste)

• Salt to taste

• 2 tbsp oil

• 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped

• 1 tbsp lemon juice

For the Dough:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour (maida)

• 1/4 cup ghee or oil

• 1/2 tsp salt

• Water (as needed)

• Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, mix flour, salt, and ghee until crumbly. Gradually add water and knead into a firm, smooth dough. Cover and rest for 30 minutes.

2. Cook the Filling: Heat oil in a pan, add cumin seeds, and let them splutter. Add onions and sauté until golden. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and green chilies, cooking for a minute. Add mutton, turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook on medium heat until the meat is tender and dry (about 20-25 minutes), stirring occasionally. Mix in garam masala, lemon juice, and coriander. Cool completely.

3. Shape the Samosas: Divide the dough into 5-6 balls. Roll each into a thin oval, cut in half, and form a cone by sealing the straight edge with water. Fill with 1-2 tbsp of mutton mixture, then seal the top by pressing the edges together.

4. Fry: Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry samosas in batches until golden and crisp (4-5 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.

5. Serve: Enjoy hot with mint chutney or ketchup!
