Vegetarian Puff Samosa

This Puff Samosa is a fantastic Indian appetizer to accompany your favorite Indian curry. I always have puff pastry in my freezer, so any time I feel like making these delicious samosas, I simply remove the pastry an hour ahead of time, and it thaws while I prepare the filling! I often serve these alongside my favorite curry – Pav Bhaji.

Start by preparing the filling. Assemble the samosas by rolling out the pastry sheets and cutting them into squares. Brush the edges of each one with egg wash. Place a tablespoon of filling at the center of each pastry square and fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle. Seal the edges and transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat until all the pastry and filling is used. Brush the top of each samosa with egg wash and bake in the oven until golden brown.

To make my Puff Samosa, you will need the following ingredients:
