Lamb Samosa

Filo pastry is perfect for making samosas. Just learn how to keep them fresh then keep trying folding them.


Ingredients

* 225g cup minced ( ground) lamb
* 30ml mild curry paste
* filo pastry, defrosted and kept in a clean kitchen towel
* salt and black peper

1. Heat a little of the butter in a large pan and add the lamb. Fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionaly until browned.
2. Stirr in the curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes. Season and set aside.
3. Melt the remaining butter in a pan. Cut the pastry sheets in half lengthways . Brush one strip of pastry with butter, then lay another strip on top and brush with more butter.
4. Place a spoonsful of lamb in the corner of the strip and fold over to form a triangle at one end. Keep folding over the same way to form a triangular package.
5. The samosas can be fried in oil ( easy use the chips maker) or they can be baked for 10-15 minutes until golden ( oven to 200
