Basically, the potatoes are samosa stuffing (potato insides, corriander seeds, mustard seeds, cumin, peas, onions, carrots) put into carved out potato skins and baked again. I love samosas but am on a trying-to-eat-healthy kick which makes their deep fried goodness a little bit too much of a splurge. But, these totally do it! There is one flavor in there (maybe the corriander seeds? or, I also put whole cumin seeds in as my own addition so maybe that is it) that is absolutely the thing that makes samosas taste like samosas to me. I'm thinking its the corriander seeds but I'm not sure. Along with them, I had the sauteed spinach recipe from the same cookbook except this time I added chickpeas for some protein. Holy delicious dinner, batman. This was fantastic! Yowza!
I have heard nothing but good things about these but had not seen a picture. They look amazing. Oh my.
ReplyDeleteoh yum, I'm with you. I love samosas but I'd really rather not fry at home. Another recipe on my to-make list! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't feeling so lazy I would be having this for dinner instead of ordering out. BUT I WANT THIS NOW. so sad.
ReplyDeleteoooh... you should try them. They kind of take a while because you have to bake the potatoes first, but, so worth it!
ReplyDeleteI'm drooling into my coffee right now :) These look delicious!
ReplyDeleteYum, these look really good!
