You Need

  • 2 teaspoons whole coriander seeds, plus additional to garnish
  • 1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds, plus additional to garnish
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium red onion, finely diced
  • 4 green/spring onions, finely chopped
  • 1 inch piece ginger, peeled and minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 jalapeño, finely chopped
  • a handful cilantro, chopped
  • juice of a lime (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)
  • 2 sheets frozen puff pastry, defrosted
  • sea salt flakes, to garnish
  • How To

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
    2. Toast seeds in a dry frying pan until fragrant then grind in a spice grinder.
    3. In a large pan over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef. Use a spatula to break apart the meat and cook for 3 minutes. Add onion and cook until beef is brown and onion is translucent, about 4 minutes.
    4. Add the garlic, jalapeño, salt, pepper, coriander, cumin, and scallions to the meat. Cook for 2 minutes. Add the peas and cilantro, then cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the meat filling from the heat and let cool.
    5. Cut each sheet of puff pastry into 9 squares. Fill with a spoonful of filling in the center and fold over into a triangle. Pinch together the edges with a fork.
    6. Place the folded samosa puffs on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with egg wash and decorate the tops with a sprinkle of cumin & coriander seeds and sea salt flakes.
    7. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
