Easy Crescent Samosa (Indian Style Sandwiches)

Recipe #26958 | 25 min | 10 min prep | add private note

Easy to make baked version of the delicious filled Indian sandwiches. Vegetarian, mild and so simple. Make it spicier if you wish by adding more curry powder or a bit of cayenne. I adapted this from a Pillsbury bake-off winning recipe. Great snack, appetizer, or main dish! Serve with this yummy honey sauce!

    Because my family tends to be skeptical of new foods, I offered these up alongside more traditional Indian dishes - and they, at least, were a hit! I cut the honey in the sauce to 1/4 cup and thought it was just about right, not too sweet like some have complained of the 1/3 cup. You do have to make these up quickly - while the dough is still stiff, or they tend to get sort of melty and difficult to handle.

    I really enjoyed these. I agree with a previous poster that they are much easier to put together when the dough is still chilled - I did one batch with dough that had sat in a warm kitchen for about ten minuets, and one with the dough fresh out of the fridge, and the chilled dough looked better and was easier to close. Taste wise they left a pleasant warmth in my mouth without being too hot, and the dipping sauce added a nice sweetness to it.

    These were very easy to make and had an excellent flavor in the spicing! The dipping sauce was delicious and was as popular as the traditional tamarind and cilantro chutneys. Definitely a keeper. Thanks, Sarafish!
