Keema (Qeema) Samosa is a popular Pakistani snack with a filling of keema enclosed in a flour-based pastry and deep-fried. Enjoy it hot with mint chutney on the side. There can be many different types of fillings, though the most common (and my favorite) is the keema ( Qeema) samosa. Other popular types are the aloo samosa and the chane daal samosa.

Ingredients:

• 500 grams chicken/Beef mince
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon red chili powder
• ¼ teaspoon ginger paste
• ¼ teaspoon garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• few drops of oil
• 1 teaspoon roasted cumin bhuna zeera
• ½ teaspoon garam masala
• ¼ teaspoon red chili flakes
• 3 – 4 onions finely chopped
• 2 cups coriander finely chopped
• 2 green chili sliced
• ½ – 1 cup mint optional
• 40 – 50 samosa patti or spring roll wrappers, cut into the required size
• 4 – 5 tablespoon flour or atta
• Oil for frying

Method:

• Put the mince and water (about 1 ½ cups – 2 cups) in a saucepan.
• Add salt, red chili powder, ginger garlic paste, coriander powder and a few drops of oil.
• Boil mince until water is evaporated and is cooked.
• Take out the mince in a large bowl, and set it aside to cool.
• Add roasted cumin seeds, garam masala and red chili flakes to the cooked mince and mix well. At this point you can freeze it if you want.
• Add the onion, coriander, green chili and mint (if using) to the mince mixture and mix through. Set aside.
• Mix flour and water in a small bowl to make a thick paste.
• Fill the samosa patti with the mince mixture (about 1 – 2 teaspoons of the filling), and fold it into a triangular shape using the sticky flour mixture to glue it shut.
• You can fry samosas right away, or freeze to use another day.
• To freeze, place the samosas on a tray making sure they don’t touch each other. Keep the tray in the freezer for about 30 – 45 minutes until the samosas are frozen. Once the samosas are frozen, you can easily remove them individually and put in a plastic bag. Spray oil on the tray to make sure the samosas don’t stick to the bottom.
• To fry, just take the frozen samosas out of the freezer and place in medium heat oil. Fry till golden brown. Frozen samosas will take 1 -2 minutes longer to cook compared to fresh samosas.
