Ingredients

  • 500g chicken fillet, cut into small cubes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4-5 Tbsp jalapeno sauce
  • Half a red and green bell pepper
  • 4-5 fresh chillies, chopped/crushed
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 Tsp cumin powder
  • 1 Tsp black pepper powder
  • 2-3 Tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 Tbsp ginger and garlic paste
  • 200g cream cheese
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • Coriander leaves, handful chopped
  • 2 sticks of spring onions
  • Eggs for dipping
  • Breadcrumbs for coating
  • Samosa leaves
  • Plain flour, for sealing samosa edges

Method

  1. Step 1

    Heat the cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent.

  2. Step 2

    Add the cubed chicken to the pan and cook, covered, over medium heat until all the moisture released from the chicken has evaporated.

  3. Step 3

    Once the chicken is cooked and the water has evaporated, add the ginger-garlic paste, cumin powder, black pepper, salt, and crushed chillies to the pan. Stir well to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Add the chopped bell peppers and jalapeño sauce to the pan and stir well. Cook for a few minutes to allow the flavours to meld. Then remove the pan from the heat and allow the chicken mixture to cool completely.

  5. Step 5

    Once the chicken mixture has cooled, add the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped coriander, and chopped spring onions. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  6. Step 6

    Fill the samosa leaves with the prepared chicken mixture. To seal the samosa edges, make a simple flour paste by mixing a couple of tablespoons of plain flour with lukewarm water to form a smooth paste.

  7. Step 7

    Once all the samosas are filled, dip each one into beaten egg and then coat thoroughly in breadcrumbs.

  8. Step 8

    Heat enough oil in a deep pan or deep fat fryer. Carefully add the coated samosas and fry until golden brown and crispy.

  9. Step 9

    Remove the cooked samosas from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper to remove excess oil.

  10. Step 10

    Serve the hot samosas with your favourite dips or chutneys.
