Mince pie samoosas
Ingredients
- 2 apples, peeled, cored and grated
- 50g Demerara sugar
- 5ml (1 tsp) mixed spice
- 50g sultanas
- 50g currants
- 1 cinnamon quill
- 4 sheets spring roll pastry
- 250ml sunflower oil, for frying
- icing sugar, for dusting
Instructions
1
Place the apples, sugar, mixed spice, sultanas, currants and cinnamon in a small pot, cover and simmer, 6 – 10 minutes. Remove the cinnamon and stir.
2
Cut each sheet of pastry into 3 pieces lengthways – you should have 12 strips.
3
Place 30ml (2 tbsp) of mixture at the bottom of each strip and fold over and over to form triangular samoosas. Repeat this process with each strip.
4
Heat the oil in a frying pan, and shallow-fry the samoosas, 2 – 3 minutes on each side. They should be golden in colour and crisp. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towel. When cool, dust with icing sugar and serve immediately.
