Air Fryer Indian Samosas
Equipment
- 1 Stainless Step Pot
- 1 Stand Mixer
- 1 Basting Brush
- 1 Medium Skillet
Ingredients
For Samosa Dough
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tbsp oil
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 tsp salt
For Samosa Filling
- 2 potatoes, medium to large size, prefer Yukon Gold
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil, divided: 1 tbsp for masala, 1 tbsp for baking or air frying
- 1 tsp tumeric powder
- 1 tsp red chili powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 tsp chopped cilantro, optional
Instructions
Start by boiling the potatoes
- Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil on a high heat. In the meantime, quarter the potatoes. Once the water has boiled, turn down to medium heat, add potatoes and cover with a lid. Cook for 20-25 minutes until fork inserted goes in smoothly and comes out clean.
Prepare samosa dough
- Add flour, salt, 1 tablespoon of oil to a mixing bowl and mix using a fork.
- Slowly add water and knead slowly into a ball. Add ¼ cup at a time, until the dough falls into a neat ball. If you have a stand mixer, you can dump all the ingredients in the mixing bowl and use the paddle attachment to get it to the right consistency.
- Dab the rolled dough with a little bit of oil, and set aside for at least 15-20 minutes so the dough can rest while the potatoes are boiling.
- Take the kneaded dough and roll it out into a long cylinder, roughly as long as your two hands side-to-side (~7-8 inches long)
- Wet the straight edge with some water and form a cone so that the top is wider and also open for you to stuff the filling. Add ~2 heaped teaspoons of filling per samosa and push it in so it evenly fills out (but only till about ¾ of the cone).
Air fry the samosas
- After you’re done folding the first samosa, pre-heat to 425 F. Depending on the size of your air-fryer, you might need to make a couple of batches – take care not to overcrowd the samosas since that will prevent the dough from cooking properly
- Place the samosas carefully in the air fryer and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, and then flip the sides and cook for another 5 to 7 minutes. Depending on your air fryer, you might need to add a few extra minutes. When it's done, the samosas should be crisp on the outside and a nice golden brown color on both sides.
