To create this culinary masterpiece, we begin by heating vegetable oil in a large frying pan and infusing it with the rich flavors of finely chopped garlic and fresh ginger. The magic of curry powder and turmeric joins the pan, filling the air with the enticing aroma of Indian spices. The star of the filling, minced beef, is added to the pan and cooked to perfection, breaking up into delectable morsels with the gentle touch of a spoon.
As the filling sizzles with flavor, we introduce frozen peas and a touch of brown sugar, elevating the taste with a hint of sweetness and adding vibrant color to the mix. The filling is then set aside to cool, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify.
Next, we unleash our creative side by using a 10cm cutter to create perfect pastry circles from thawed puff pastry sheets. Each circle is filled with a generous spoonful of the tantalizing beef mixture and adorned with the freshness of chopped coriander leaves.
The pastry circles are folded into semicircles and lovingly sealed to embrace the delectable filling. Now, it’s time to take the samosas on a golden journey as they meet the sizzling embrace of hot oil in a deep frying pan. The samosas fry until they reach crisp and golden perfection, their aroma filling the kitchen with an irresistible allure.
Once they emerge from the oil, the samosas are gently drained on paper towels, leaving them perfectly crispy and ready to be devoured. Serve these scrumptious Beef Samosas hot as a delightful snack or appetizer, and watch as your guests fall in love with the enchanting flavors of India.
