Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 pound Ground lamb
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 inch piece Ginger, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 cup Green peas
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 Lime, juiced
• 0 Salt, to taste
• 0 as needed Oil, for frying

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Gradually add water and oil, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground lamb until browned. Drain any excess fat.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger to the lamb and sauté until the onion turns translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the ground cumin, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and red chili powder. Cook for another 2 minutes to release the spices' aroma.

Step 5

Add the green peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste and add lime juice.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool. Stir in the chopped cilantro.

Step 7

Divide the rested dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. On a flat surface, roll each ball into a 6-inch circle.

Step 8

Cut each circle in half to create two semi-circles. Form a cone by bringing the straight edges together and sealing them with a touch of water.

Step 9

Fill each cone with lamb mixture, being careful not to overfill. Seal the opening by pinching the edges together.

Step 10

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the samosas in batches until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels.

Step 11

Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free lamb samosas with your favorite dipping sauce.
