Sift flour and salt into a large bowl. You can add or reduce salt according to taste.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/af/Make-Samosas-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-7.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/af/Make-Samosas-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add oil or butter to the top of the dough. Then mix well with your fingers, mixing in a pinch. Continue mixing until the dough is evenly mixed with the cooking oil and into a ball. The dough should be slightly dry and can be easily divided into small portions.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f2/MakePizzaDough-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-MakePizzaDough-Step-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:” https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f2/MakePizzaDough-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-MakePizzaDough-Step-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306 ,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:484,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add 5 teaspoons of filtered water to the dough. Use your hands to mix flour with water to loosen the dough, the dough should be soft, flexible but still not wet. Add water if necessary.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d5/Make-Samosas-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-8.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d5/Make-Samosas-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Lift the dough out of the bowl and knead the dough. Place the dough on a clean flat surface (probably a kitchen counter) and knead the dough for about 4 minutes. Knead until the dough is smooth and then ball into a ball.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/33/MakePizzaDough-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-MakePizzaDough-Step-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:” https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/33/MakePizzaDough-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-MakePizzaDough-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306 ,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:484,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Let the dough rest for 30 minutes. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let the dough rest on the counter while making the filling. This process will help the dough become smooth. [1] X Research Sources[2] X Research Sources

Toss the cumin seeds in hot oil or butter. This is the best way to bring out the perfect fragrance. Roast until the room is filled with aroma and the cumin seeds begin to break apart in about 30 seconds.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d5/Make-Samosas-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-2.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d5/Make-Samosas-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-2.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add onion and ginger. Saute onion and ginger with cumin seeds for about 5 minutes, until onion turns bright yellow.

Add garlic, chili, turmeric, salt and garam masala powder. Season to taste and mix well for about 1 minute.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/26/Make-Samosas-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-4.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/26/Make-Samosas-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-4.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Add chickpeas and potatoes to the mixture, stir gently and cook until potatoes are dry. This step takes about 3 minutes. Mix well and mash lightly.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/20/Make-Samosas-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-5.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/20/Make-Samosas-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Let the cake cool. Turn off the heat and let cool while preparing the crust.
Baking
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4a/Make-Samosas-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-9.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4a/Make-Samosas-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Divide the dough above into 8 equal parts. You can use a measuring cup, but it will be easier if you simply shape it into a circle.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/78/Make-Samosas-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-10.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/78/Make-Samosas-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Roll each piece into a pie crust. The pillowcase should be thin, flat and round. According to this recipe, you should roll the crust into a circle with a diameter of about 6 inches (15.2cm). Use a rolling pin or use your fingers to shape the crust.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3c/Make-Samosas-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-11.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3c/Make-Samosas-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Cut each crust into 2 halves. Use a knife to cut the crust into 2 halves.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/87/Make-Samosas-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-12.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/87/Make-Samosas-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Stuff and fold the cake. Place 2 teaspoons of filling in the center of the pie crust, then fold the edges of the crust together to create a cone, and then glue the edges together with water (you can also paste with flour and water).
- Use your fingers to press on the edge of the cake to create a cake shape
- To make the edges more special, use a fork to press the edges together.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9c/Make-Samosas-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-14.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/9c/Make-Samosas-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Do the same with the remaining filling and crust. Then, place the cake separately on a plate or baking sheet.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/89/Make-Baking-Mix-Doughnuts-Step-1.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Baking-Mix-Doughnuts- Step-1.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/89/Make-Baking-Mix-Doughnuts-Step-1.jpg/v4-728px-Make- Baking-Mix-Doughnuts-Step-1.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:484,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Heat cooking oil. Pour cooking oil a few centimeters deep into a large pan. Heat the cooking oil until the oil reaches 177 degrees Celsius. To make sure the oil is hot or not, use a thermometer to measure or take a small piece of flour into the oil, if you see the oil crackling, it is okay.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/80/Make-Samosas-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-15.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/80/Make-Samosas-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Fried cake. Put 3 to 4 cakes in the pan and deep fry for about 10 minutes until both sides turn golden brown. Do not put too many cakes in to fry at once, the cake will easily break.
- After frying each batch of cakes, use a patch to scoop the cakes onto a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Be careful not to fry the cake for too long or it will burn and harden.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/99/Make-Samosas-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-16.jpg”,” bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/99/Make-Samosas-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Make-Samosas-Step-16.jpg”,”smallWidth” :460,”smallHeight”:308,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:487,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Serve hot with chili sauce (or Indian-style green chili sauce). So the pillow cake is ready, served with chili sauce.
