The full recipe with pictures can be found here: http://ift.tt/1UCS4BN

Ingredients:

• 6 large potatoes (peeled and cubed)
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 package cream cheese
• 2 tbs curry powder (or to taste)
• 1 tbs salt (or to taste)
• 2 cups peas

Directions:

1. Cook the potatoes in the chicken broth until soft. Strain the potatoes and run cold water over them.

2. Break the cream cheese up into smaller chunks and add to the potatoes.

3. Add the curry powder, salt and peas.

4. Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well incorporated.

5. Set the mixture aside, and begin working on the crust.

Crust Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 2 tsp salt
• ¼ cup coconut oil
• 1/3 cup goat cheese
• ¼-1/2 cup cold water

Directions:

1. Mix the flour, salt, coconut oil, and goat cheese in a food processor until coarse crumbs form.

2. Slowly add the water (1/8 cup at a time) until a solid dough ball forms.

3. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Do not knead. Roll the dough out into a quarter-inch thickness.

4. Cut out 3-inch circles of dough, and then roll out the circles more until that they are approximately 4 ½-5 inches in diameter.

5. Spoon the potato mixture into the center of the circle. Fold up each section of the circle, pinching the corners as you go, until the potato mixture is completely enclosed in the crust.

6. Fill a medium saucepan with 1-2 inches of vegetable oil, and turn the heat up to medium-high.

7. Once the oil is hot (not so hot that the grease is popping out of the pan and burning you), begin adding your samosas, cooking up to 4 at a time.

8. Let samosas cook on one side until the crust is golden brown, then flip to the other side. When both sides are the golden color you’re looking for, transfer the samosas to a wire rack to cool.
