Ingredients required
Puff pastry – The best thing to have in your freezer at all times. This quick pastry dough creates sweet and savory dishes. Simply defrost and you’re ready to go! Any store-bought option you can find in your local grocery will work! I am using Pepperidge Farm Puff pastry in this recipe.Butter – Do apply butter on the edges of your puff pastry which will help your puff pastry achieve that gorgeous golden sheen.For samosa filling – For samosa filling, you will need classing samosa filling ingredients like Potato, green peas, garam masala, aamchur powder, salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, green chilies, ginger, oil, cumin seeds, and coriander seeds.For the topping – You will need sweet chutney, green chutney, garlic chutney, sev, and finely chopped onion. You can use either homemade or store-bought chutney.
Step-by-step Process
To begin, thaw the puff pastry according to the package instruction. This will take 30-45 minutes. Don’t let it sit out any longer than that.Preheat your oven to @400 degrees F.Line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
Samosa tart filling
Heat oil in a pan.Add cumin seeds and crushed coriander seeds. Saute for 5 to 6 seconds.Now add Ginger and green chilies. Again sauté for 30 seconds.Add all the spices – red chili powder, garam masala, aamchur powder, turmeric powder, salt – And green peas.Mix everything well and sauté for a minute.Now add mashed potatoes. Mix very well and cook on a medium flame for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.Switch off the flame and let the mixture cool down.
Assemble
Take one thawed puff pastry sheet on a working surface. Carefully open it.Lightly Roll thawed puff pastry out into a large 9 x 13-inch rectangle. Transfer it to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.Prick the inside of the rectangle with a fork, leaving the ¾ inch on all sides. This will prevent it from rising in the oven.Spread half of the samosa filling on top of the puff pastry sheet leaving ¾ inch border on all four sides.
Fold the border on all sides. Then brush the border with melted butter. Sprinkle some Kalonji on the border.
Place the baking sheet into the oven on the middle rack.Bake this samosa puff pastry tart at @400 degrees F. for about 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.Note – Baking times may vary from oven to oven. Keep an eye on your pastry during the last 5 minutes. When it’s golden and puffy, it’s done.Take it out of the oven. Let it cool down for about 5 minutes.Then at the time of serving, drizzle garlic chutney, sweet chutney, and green chutney. And then sprinkle some sev, onion, and cilantro.
Cut into desired pieces and enjoy!! You can also add pomegranate and sweet curd/yogurt.Tip – If you are serving this at a party, cut the tart into desired pieces, and place them on a table. Let your guests add all the toppings (three chutneys, sev, onion, and cilantro) to their desired taste.
I recommend serving this Samosa puff pastry tart straight out of the oven to get the best flavors. I have also tried them after 5 hours and the taste and texture were good too.Roll the puff pastry very lightly, don’t give too much pressure.Make sure you prick the pastry sheet before spreading the samosa filling.
