Everything You Need for Gluten Free Samosa Patties

• 2 cups gluten-free flour blend
• 1/4 cup oil (vegetable or coconut)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup water (more as needed)
• 1 cup potatoes, boiled and mashed
• 1/2 cup green peas, boiled
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
• Salt to taste
• Oil for frying

The gluten-free flour blend forms a light yet sturdy crust for frying, while garam masala and turmeric infuse the filling with warm, aromatic flavors.

How To Make Gluten Free Samosa Patties Step by Step

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, salt, and oil. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth dough. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
2. In another bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, boiled green peas, cumin seeds, garam masala, turmeric, red chili powder, cilantro, and salt. Stir to combine evenly and set aside.
3. Once the dough has rested, divide it into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle on a lightly floured surface.
4. Cut each circle in half to create two semi-circles. Shape one semi-circle into a cone, sealing the edge with a little water.
5. Fill the cone with the potato and pea mixture. Seal the open edge by pinching it tightly to form a patty shape. Repeat for the remaining dough and filling.

6. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, gently slide the samosa patties in, frying in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch.
7. Remove the patties using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite chutney or sauce.

Storing and Reheating Your Patties

Store any leftover patties in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To maintain their crisp texture, reheat them in an oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes before serving. If freezing, let the patties cool completely and freeze in a single layer for up to one month, reheating directly from frozen in the oven.

FAQ About Gluten Free Samosa Patties

• Can I bake these instead of frying? Yes, bake them at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway for even crisping.
• What’s the best oil for frying? Neutral oils like vegetable or sunflower oil work best for a light, non-greasy finish.
• Can I make the dough ahead of time? Absolutely, the dough can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours before using.

Expert Tips for Perfect Patties

• Keep the dough moist but firm: This ensures a smooth roll and prevents cracking during frying.
• Do not overcrowd the frying pan: Frying too many patties at once lowers the oil temperature, causing them to absorb more oil.
• Use freshly boiled potatoes: Freshly mashed potatoes bind better and add creaminess to the filling.
• Seal the patties tightly: Ensuring a proper seal prevents oil from seeping into the filling during frying.
