Instructions
- In a pan, heat oil over a medium-high flame and add bay leaves, cloves, fennel seeds and cinnamon stick. Sauté for about a minute or until fragrant and add onions. Stir fry for about 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent and add garlic, ginger and green chillies. Cook for another minute and add turmeric, cumin, coriander and red chilli powder and stir-fry for a minute more.
- Add the mutton keema, curd, salt and cook while stirring continuously for about 6-8 minutes until browned. Then add garam masala and chopped coriander leaves to this mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes, switch off the flame and remove bay leaves and cinnamon stick. Let the mixture cool.
- Preheat the oven at 200° C. Meanwhile, knead the flour with oil and roll out small balls. Roll into rotis and cut them into halves. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and milk to prepare the egg wash.
- Make cone shapes out of the halved dough sheets and fill in a spoonful of the keema mixture. Press the edges and fold the opening and brush some egg wash to seal the bottom. Place the samosas on a lined baking tray and brush them with egg wash. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Serve hot with ketchup, yoghurt dip, tamarind and date chutney or mint-coriander chutney as per your convenience.
