Samosa Dough

Making samosa dough is pretty easy, which is why I'm often surprised when people look for store bought options for it. Although, I do love the taste of pastry shells!

This recipe is pretty easy and can be made in a jiffy. It forms the crispy outer shell for the samosa and has just the right consistency.

INGREDIENTS:

4 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 and 1/3 cup Water

EQUIPMENT:
1 Food Processor
1 Bowl
1 Clean Towel

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a food processor, mix salt, oil and flour for 20-30 seconds.
2. Add 2/3 cup lukewarm water to the dry ingredients and mix. Add the remaining 2/3 cup lukewarm water into the food processor and mix.
3. Mix the dough in the food processor until it becomes a soft dough.
4. Remove from the food processor and place in a mixing bowl.
5. Knead the dough with your hand until dough becomes one solid ball of dough.
6. Take a clean towel and soak in warm water. Ring out all excess water.
7. Wrap the ball of dough, covering every surface, and place in a bowl. Let it sit for at least 2 hours.
