INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked lentils (198g)
1 cup chopped cauliflower (107g)
150g firm tofu
1/2 cup cooked green peas (80g)
1/4 cup whole wheat flour (30g)
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (60g)
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils, chopped cauliflower, crumbled firm tofu, and green peas. Using a fork, lightly mash the mixture while leaving some texture.
Season the filling with ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
In a separate small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with fresh mint, cilantro, and lemon juice to create the mint chutney. Adjust salt and pepper if needed, then set aside.
For the samosa dough, lightly mix the whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt and a few drops of water until a smooth, pliable dough forms. If needed, knead for 1-2 minutes.
Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a thin circle. Spoon a portion of the lentil-cauliflower filling onto each circle, then fold into a triangular shape by bringing the edges together. Seal the edges by pressing lightly.
Place the prepared samosas on the lined baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dough is lightly golden and crisp.
Serve warm alongside the refreshing mint chutney and enjoy your balanced meal.
