INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Red Lentils (200g)
1 cup Mixed Vegetables (150g)
1/4 cup Chickpea Flour (30g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1/4 cup Fresh Mint Leaves (10g)
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt (113g)
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice (5g)
1 tablespoon Spices (assorted)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the cooked red lentils, mixed vegetables, and spices. Drizzle olive oil over the mixture and stir to evenly coat.
Mix in the chickpea flour gradually to bind the filling mixture together. If needed, add a tablespoon of water to achieve a cohesive texture.
Spoon the lentil-vegetable filling onto small rounds of parchment paper and fold them into triangle shapes to mimic samosas. Secure the edges by pressing gently.
Place the samosas on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is firm and lightly golden.
While the samosas are baking, prepare the mint yogurt chutney by blending together the fresh mint leaves, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth.
Once the samosas are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with the refreshing mint yogurt chutney on the side.
