This is an easy quick and delicious recipe for lunch or snack especially when zucchini is in season.

Ingredients:

2 big or 4 medium zucchini grated

1 tsp salt

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 egg beaten

1 garlic crushed

1/4 cup scallions finely diced

1/2 tsp cumin powder (optional)

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

4 tbs olive oil for frying

Pita bread and lemon wedges for serving
Method:

Place the shredded zucchini in a colander set over a bowl and sprinkle the zucchini lightly with salt. Allow the zucchini to stand for 10 minutes. Using your hands, squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible.

Transfer the zucchini to a large bowl.

Add the flour, eggs, scallions, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin and red pepper (if used) to the bowl, stirring until the mixture is combined. Line a plate with paper towels.

Add the olive oil to large sauté pan set over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop 1 tablespoon mounds of the zucchini mixture into the pan, (or 2 tbs depends how big in diameter you want the fritters) pressing them lightly into rounds and spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Cook the zucchini fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip them once and cook an additional 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked throughout. Transfer the zucchini fritters to the paper towel-lined plate.

Repeat the scooping and cooking process with the remaining zucchini mixture.

in a big bowl, mix together ajwain, salt, flour and ghee. Rub the flour well in between the palms to incorporate the ghee well.

Add water little by little and mix the flour to dough. Cover and set aside until the filling is ready.

In a sauté pan, heat the 2 tbs of ghee butter, then add cumin until begins to sizzle.

Add ginger, green chilli and saute until it begins to smell good. Add ground beef an brown for 5 minutes or until all liquid absorbed.

5. Add smashed potatoes, peas, chili powder, garam masala, crushed coriande, mango powder and salt. Mix everything well and saute for 3 to 5 mins. Set aside to cool.
How to assemble Samosa:
Make 8 portions of the dough and roll to balls.

2. Grease the rolling area and then flatten a ball. Begin to roll to a oblong or oval shape. Cut it to two. If the edges are too thick, gently roll it to thin down.

4. Smear water over the straight edge and join the edges to make a cone. Press gently to seal the cone.

5. Fill the cone with potato masala and smear water on the edges. Bring the edges together and make a pleat on one side. Bring back the pleat and seal it. Make sure the samosa has been sealed well.

6. Finish making all the samosas.

How to deep fry samosa

Heat oil in a pan until medium hot. A piece of dough dropped in the hot oil must rise gently not immediately. This is the right temperature.

Add the samosas to the oil and deep fry them until golden. When they are half fried you can increase the flame to little high and fry until crusty.

Gözleme is a traditional savory Turkish flatbread, made of hand-rolled dough that are filled with various toppings, sealed, and cooked over a griddle. The name derives from the Turkish word göz, meaning “compartment”, in reference to the pocket of dough.
