Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 2.5 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, shredded
• 0.5 cup Frozen peas, thawed
• 0.5 cup Carrot, finely diced
• 0.5 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
• 1.5 teaspoons Curry powder
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cups Oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder. Mix well.

Step 2

Add warm water and vegetable oil to the flour mixture, and knead to form a smooth dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Step 3

In a pan over medium heat, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the red onion until translucent, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add garlic and ginger to the onions, stirring constantly until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in carrots, peas, shredded chicken, curry powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the vegetables are tender and flavors are well combined, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the filling from heat and stir in cilantro. Let it cool to room temperature.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then into a thin oval shape.

Step 8

Cut each oval in half to form two semi-circles. Take one semi-circle and fold it into a cone shape. Seal the edge with water.

Step 9

Fill the cone with 1-2 teaspoons of the chicken filling. Seal the opening with a little water and press firmly to ensure it's tightly sealed.

Step 10

Heat oil for frying in a deep pan over medium heat. Once hot, gently slide in the samosas, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

Step 11

Remove the fried samosas with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
