    Title: Gobhi Samosa (Cauliflower Pastry)
    Categories: Vegetables, Appetisers, Herbs, Vegetables, Fruits
    Yield: 8 Servings

    Ghee; as needed
    1 ts White cumin seed
    1 tb Onion; chopped
    4 tb Cauliflower; grated
    1 tb Green peas
    pn Asafetida
    1 ts Green mango powder
    pn Garam masala
    1/2 ts Salt; to taste
    1/2 ts Cayenne
    1 Recipe pastry dough
    Water; to bind

    Heat 1 tb ghee in a skillet. Saute the cumin seeds
    until golden. Add onion, cauliflower & peas & mix
    well. Mix in asafetida & mango powder, stir. Add
    garam masala, salt & cayenne. Cover the pan & cook
    over a moderate heat for 10 minutes. Remove pan from
    heat & cool.

    Divide mixture into 8 equal portions.

    Take one half-moon of pastry & brush the edges with
    water. Fold into a cone. Fill pastry with 1 portion
    of cauliflower mixture & seal the top. Repeat with the
    rest of the pastry. Heat sufficient ghee (or vegetable
    oil) in a wok or large skillet to deep fry 4 samosas
    at a time. When very hot, deep-fry each samosa for a
    few minutes, until golden brown, flipping once to cook
    both sides. Drain on paper towels.

    **MARK'S NOTE: To avoid excess fat I like to deep-fry
    the samosas, drain them very well & then reheat them
    in a toaster oven @ 350ºF/175ºC for 5 minutes or so.
    If you place them on a grill while re-heating them,
    extra oil can also drain off.
