• Now follow the procedure to make a coke as shown in the above fig.2 and to paste the ends use water.
  
• Once the cone is done, make a small ball of the above mix and place it in the cone and close the upper end neatly with the help of water so that it does not leak while frying.
  
• Heat deep frying pan with half oil in that.
• Once the oil gets heated up, slowly place each samosa at a time. (can fry 3-4 samosas at a time, depending on the pan size and oil poured).
• Fry the samosas until they are light brown and you think that they have become crisp.
• Serve hot with green chutney or ketch up.
  

Preparation Time:
10mins for mixture
30mins for dough
20mins to prepare samosas
20 mins to fry 3-4 samosas

Serves: 6-8

Note:
Dough is to be made not so soft not so hard then you get chapathis very soft and thin.
Onions and Chillies must be chopped into very small size.
Samosa cone should not be overloaded with the mix as there is a chance of coming out of the samosa while frying.

Comments are welcome....!!!
