Preparation
Step 1
To glue: using the mixture of 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp water
**Note: I bought one pack of the spring roll wrapper. My filling recipe probably can make 12-15 small-size samosa. I only used 5-6 spring roll wrappers and still have a lot leftover, so I freeze the wrapper for later time with different fillings. You can choose to freeze the leftover spring roll wrappers or double/triple the filling. Un-fried samosa can be frozen. So, you don't need to cook all of them at once.
In a medium pot, bring water to a boil. While the meantime, peel and cut potatoes into large chunk. Then, boil for 8-10 mins or until the cooked through. When it is completely cool, diced into smaller pieces (1cm cube)
In a large pan or a wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add in onion and cook for 2-3 mins. Then, add in the ground pork. Stir. When the ground pork is fully cooked, add in mixed vegetable and diced potatoes. Add in all seasoning (garam masala seasoning, curry powder, turmeric, salt, black pepper). Cook for another 2-3 mins. Stir and lightly crush the filling mixture. Transfer the filling into a bowl and let it cool for 10 mins.
Once the filling is completely cool. Bring out one sheet of the spring roll wrapper. Divided them into 3 sections. Take one of the strip and make them into a cone. Fill the wrapper with the prepared samosa filling. Seal the top with the flour-water mixture and fold it over to form a triangle package. Repeat for the remaining filling.
In a small/medium pot, filled with the oil about 2 inch. When the oil is hot enough, approximately 350F, deep fry the prepared samosa; one or two at a time until it is golden browned. Don't overcrowded. You can serve with store bought spring rolls dipping sauce. Best to eat when it is still crispy and hot!
