I didn’t intend this to be a cooking blog, but these were so easy and delicious that I wanted to share them. My wonderful husband Dave is vegetarian (ovo/lacto/pesco which means he does eat eggs/dairy/fish), and I struggle to find quick and good non-meat dishes to put into rotation. This one definitely made the cut. They turned out really well even though I had to scramble to finish them to get Arden who woke early from her nap.

Easy SamosasÂ
Source:Â Real Simple
Ingredients
- 1Â tablespoon olive oil
- 1Â medium onion, chopped
- 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
- Kosher salt and black pepper (I used table salt)
- 2 cups store-bought refrigerated mashed or frozen mashed potatoes, thawed (about 16 ounces) (I used Idahoan brand potato flakes)
- 1Â 10-ounce package frozen peas, thawed
- 1Â 15-ounce package refrigerated piecrusts
- 1Â jar mango chutney (optional)
- (Sour cream or plain yogurt) This is my addition
Directions
- Heat oven to 375° F. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the curry powder, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the potatoes and peas.
- Unroll the piecrusts and cut each into 6 triangles. Place a heaping tablespoon of the potato mixture in the center of each piece. Gather the corners of the dough and pinch to form a point. Pinch the seams to seal. Transfer to a baking sheet.
- Bake the samosas until golden, 22 to 25 minutes. Serve with the mango chutney and/or sour cream/plain yogurt if using.
I made these last week for the first time, and I already bought ingredients to make them again this week. That good and easy! I hope you enjoy as well!
