Baked Cauliflower & Spinach Samosas
These baked veggie samosas are easy to make with pre-made filo pastry and are much healthier than fried.
Ingredients
- 4 tbs coconut oil (melted)
- 400g cauliflower (chopped into florets)
- 4 spring onions (chopped)
- 75g spinach (chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
- 2 tsp garam masala
- 1/2 medium lemon (juiced)
- 1/2 bunch coriander (fresh, chopped)
- 12 sheets filo pastry (store bought)
Method
- Place the cauliflower, spring onions, spinach, garlic and coriander in a food processor and blitz to a fine consistency.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick pan on a medium high heat and fry the cauliflower mix for 5-6 minutes. Stir in the garam masala and lemon juice and cook for 1 more minute.
- Lay the filo pastry out on a work top and have the remaining melted coconut oil and a pastry brush ready. Slice each sheet into 2 long pieces. Place a spoonful of filling on the bottom left corner, fold over the top right corner to make a triangular shape. Continue folding, brushing coconut oil in between each layer, until you have a triangular shaped samosa. Repeat with the remaining filling and pastry to make 24 samosas.
- Pre-heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Brush the top of the samosas with oil, place on a baking tray and bake for 15 minutes until golden and crisp.
