Step-by-Step Instructions for Samosa Pie
- Start by heating 2 tablespoons of ghee or butter in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add one chopped onion and caramelize it for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it turns golden-brown and sweetly fragrant.
- Next, stir in one minced jalapeño pepper and 3 minced garlic cloves, cooking for an additional minute until everything is aromatic.
- Add 1 pound of ground chicken to the pot, along with 1 teaspoon of garam masala, ½ teaspoon of turmeric, and salt to taste. Cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is no longer pink.
- Then, add 1.5 pounds of diced potatoes and about 1 cup of water. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for approximately 25 minutes.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, mix in 1 cup of green peas and ½ cup of chopped fresh cilantro. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Transfer the filling to a greased baking dish. Roll out your pre-made pastry to fit over the top, ensuring it's slightly larger than the dish.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the Samosa Pie for about 25 minutes, or until the crust turns a beautiful golden brown.
