  • I have used maida for making samosa patti, but you can use equal proportions of wheat and plain flour to prepare the dough
  • Samosa patti or sheet can be deep freeze after it has been rolled and fired for 30 -45 secs each.

Making samosa patti

  • For Samosa Patti dough, take Maida/All Purpose Flour, Salt & Oil in a big bowl.
  • Mix everything well & then use water to knead the soft dough like Paratha. I used ¾  Cup of Water approx.
  • Smoothen the dough using little bit oil. Cover & let the dough rest for 20 mins.
  • After 20 min checks the dough and knead it for 1 min and then make equal size balls.
  • For layered roti, roll 1 ball in to thin roti shape, keep it aside and then roll one more ball.
  • Now apply a layer of oil on one roti and then place the second rolled roti over it.
  • Then press the roti so it sticks and then using maida roll the roti as thin as possible.
  • Now lightly roast the rotis on both sides on low flame till bubbles appear. It takes approx 30 sec on one side. Once bubbles appear turn it over and roast on another side.
  • Separate both sheets and keep them aside Once done put roti in a casserole to avoid its drying

Making chana dal samosa

  • cut the roti into 4 parts by cutting a cross Or you can shape the samosa from a long-shaped patti also.
  • Prepare Maida slurry by mixing 2 Tbsp Maida with ¼ cup of water.
  • Now apply a light layer of slurry on the outer side of patti (arc shape).
  • Fold the edges and prepare a cone. Lightly press the edges so it seals and then fills the cone with stuffing. Handle the cone with light hands so it doesn't break.
  • Apply a little layer of maida slurry on the top edges and seal the samosa.
  • Prepare the remaining samosa in the same way.
  • Or for the samosa patti folding technique, please refer to the video.
  • For samosa frying, heat oil in a pan; reduce the flame to low, and fry samosas in batches of 5-6.
  • Keeping flame from low to medium fry till samosas are golden brown in color. Don't hurry while frying samosa and don't fry on high flame.
  • Once samosas are golden brown take them out into a wire rack.
