Air Fryer Samosas
Use your air fryer to make Indian samosas - this version is vegetarian with potatoes and peas but you can cook any samosa in the air fryer.
INGREDIENTS :
- 12 ounces yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 2/3 cup frozen peas, thawed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 24 wonton wrappers
- cooking spray
- Cilantro-Yogurt Sauce
- 3/4 cup whole-milk Greek-style yogurt
- 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
DIRECTION:
- Add potatoes to a small saucepan and cover with salted water; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and transfer potatoes to a bowl; mash until mostly smooth with a few small chunks remaining.
- In the same saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in ginger and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add garam masala, cumin, salt, and (if using) cayenne; cook about 30 seconds more. Stir in mashed potatoes and peas; cook until warmed through. Remove from heat; stir in cilantro.
- Arrange wonton wrappers on a clean work surface; evenly spoon filling into centers of wontonwrappers. Lightly wet borders of wrappers with
- water. Fold two corners together to form triangles. Press edges to seal. Coat both sides of samosas with cooking spray.
- Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Working in batches if needed, arrange samosas in an even layer in the basket. Cook, turning once halfway through, until samosas are golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine yogurt, cilantro, lime zest, lime juice; garlic, salt and pepper in a small food processor; process until well combined. Chill, covered, up to 5 days.
- Serve samosas with cilantro-yogurt sauce. Garnish with additional cilantro.
