The Global Kitchen: Samosas Cups recipe from Indian as Apple Pie

 I was able to attend the Big Feed Event at Harvest Market in October. I also got to visit with one of my favorite vendors, Indian as Apple Pie. She has spices and sauces used in Indian cuisine and are expanding all of the time. In a recent email she had a recipe for Samosa Puffs using puff pastry but as a diabetic I was looking for an alternative way to do the samosas. I thought about the wonton wrappers while at the store so bought the ingredients to try. I think they turned out great!

The Ingredients:

2 TBSP vegetable oil

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1 heaping tsp of cumin seeds

2 large poiled and peeled russet potatoes diced

1 heaping tsp garam masala

1 heaping tsp chaat masala

2 tsp salt

2/3 C frozen peas, slightly defrosted

24 wonton wrappers

The recipe:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat. Once the oil is warm, add the turmeric and cumin. Stir and cook for 40 seconds.

Add the potatoes. Stir and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garam masala, chaat masala, and salt. Stir and cook until potatoes are cooked through mashing down the potatoes with a fork. 

Turn off the heat, add the peas, and stir. 

Spray a muffin tin and place wonton wrappers in each space. Fill the wrapper with the potato mixture. 

Bake for 10 minutes then cool. 

I added some Coriander Chili Chutney and silk chili to the top prior to baking. 

You can garnish with other chutney like tamarind or mango for some added flavor.
