What's Been Cooking in Korea- Part 3


 One of the great things about living overseas and traveling is finding new and delicious food to eat.  On our trip to India we discovered Samosas...and have been in love with them ever since! 

Curry Mixture and Samosa Dough
SAMOSA PASTRY
Yields 12 pastries

3/4 cup + 1 Tbs. of flour
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbs. vegetable oil
40ml of water

Mix flour and salt in a bowl.  Add oil and enough water until dough is firm.  Cover in plastic wrap and set aside for 20-30 minutes. 



After dough has set, divide pastry into 6 balls.  Use a rolling pin to flatten each ball into a circle.  Cut the circle in half and fill the semi-circles with Samosa filling.  Fold the semi-circles in half, pinching the sides with water.   Fill bottom of frying pan with oil and heat.  Fry the samosas (be careful not to let curry spill into oil-it will splatter like crazy!).  Use the remaining samosa filling to pour over rice and enjoy the meal!





SAMOSA FILLING (CURRY)
2-3 potatoes diced
1 carrot diced
1 chopped onion
2 Tbs. vegetable oil
Half a package of curry seasoning
350ml water
Bag of chicken

Heat oil in pan, add veggies, and stir until cooked.  Add water and curry seasoning.  Mix until it thickens.  After you use the filling for the samosas, add a bag of chicken.
