Method

1. 01

   Warm the oil and crackle the cumin seeds, then add ginger and chili for thirty seconds. Stir in the mashed potato, peas, garam masala, coriander, turmeric, and salt and cook two minutes until fragrant. Fold in cilantro and let the filling cool fully — hot filling tears the pastry.

2. 02

   Fold each pastry strip into a cone, spoon in the filling, and seal the edges with a dab of flour-and-water paste. Brush the finished samosas all over with a thin film of oil.

3. 03

   Arrange in a single layer with space between them and air fry at 370°F for 16 minutes, flipping halfway, until evenly golden and crisp.

4. 04

   Rest a couple of minutes — they crisp further as they cool slightly — and serve with tamarind or mint chutney.
