1 teaspoon of cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala
1 teaspoon of ground coriander
1 teaspoon of turmeric powder
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon of oil
Spring roll pastry sheets
Oil for deep frying
Instructions:
Prepare the filling:

Cook for another 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and let the filling cool.
Assemble the samosas:
Take a spring roll pastry sheet and cut it in half.
Take one half and fold it into a cone shape, sealing the edges with a little water.
Fill the cone with the potato filling, making sure not to overfill.
Close the open end of the cone with water, pressing gently to make sure it stays closed.

Fry the Samosas:
Heat oil in a deep pan on medium heat.
When the oil is hot, carefully drop the prepared samosas in batches.
Fry until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides, flipping from time to time to ensure doneness.
Once done, remove the samosas from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain the excess oil.
