I made Samosa on Thursday with the leftover curry we had from Japanese Curry we had that day. I added some peas to the leftover curry because my son doesn't like them, I don't want to spoil his dinner by adding them first.
Ingredients:
- Curry, leftovers worked fine
- Spring roll skin, I'm using Spring Home (第一家) brand, cut into 6 cm by 21 cm strips
- 1 egg, to seal the samosa
- Oil for frying
How to do it:
- Mash the ingredients in your curry to very small bits if yours are in chunk.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of curry and place it on the end of the spring roll, leaving some space for folding.
- Fold the end over the curry like a triangle. (see instructions below)
- Continue folding over. Stop at the last fold.
- Spread some egg mixture on the remaining spring roll.
- Fold over to seal the samosa.
- Deep fry the samosa.
- Remove, drain and serve.
Note:
- It works better if your curry is paste-like. So drain away excess sauce before you start.
- Alternatively, you can remove the ingredients from your curry to mash them then add curry sauce gradually to get the right texture.
- Trim away the last part of the spring roll skin to make the samosa look nice. I didn't do it - too lazy. LOL
This is such a great idea, wrap left-over curry in egg roll skin. I usually wrap left-over meat stew with glutinous rice in bamboo leaves. With a little chestnut, and mushroom, left-over stew does not taste left-over but flavored enhanced brand new dish!
ReplyDeleteLee Ping,
ReplyDeleteIt's a pity to waste good food, ya. What you described on your leftover, sounds delicious!
