Queerie take it easy on her na..

I have baked sprng rolls and they turn out okay.. Im all about fried stuff (not anymore thou)
Has anyone baked those rice aper wrapper, theyre kinda round and used for wontons

Re: Baking Samosas?

I made them yesterday. I made one pound of keema for the filling, and so obviously, the 2 cups of flour simply were not enough and I had to make more and more pastry dough. sigh I feel like I was kneading and rolling dough all the day long yesterday. By 8:00 p.m., my legs felt like they were about to fall off and I seriously needed a massage.

Anyway, I baked a few and I fried a few. The rest have been stored in the freezer for iftar. The baked ones just did not turn out as good as the fried ones which really is not a good thing. Yeah I made them and they taste great fried, but I will serve them at iftar parties … I won’t be eating them myself or else I’ll turn into a gulab jaman … moreso than I already am.

Re: Baking Samosas?

Exactly Mehnaz. I wouldn;t reccomend baked samosas out of home made dough. They didn;t taste as good. Mehnaz allow yourself one fried samosa whenever u make em. Not like you'll be frying them everyday!
