Divide the pastry into 12 equal pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball and roll out into a circle of 15 cm.

Brush each edge with a little water and form a cone shape around your fingers, sealing the dampened edge.

Fill the cases with a tbsp of filling and press the two dampened edges together to seal the top of the cone.

Deep fry the samosas in hot oil until crisp and brown take out and drain on a paper towel.

Somosa is ready to serve.
