recipe
To make Matar Samosa Chaat, first soak dry peas in water for 5-6 hours. When making matar samosa chaat, put all purpose flour in a deep bottomed vessel. Now add desi ghee, celery and a little salt to it and mix it well. Now add water little by little and knead the dough. After this, cover the dough with a wet cloth and keep it aside for some time. Meanwhile, boil the potatoes and then after peeling them, put them in a utensil and mash them well. After the potatoes are well mashed, add chopped green chillies, garlic, turmeric, green coriander and mix them all well. Now put some oil in a pan and fry the green peas in it. After frying for 1-2 minutes, add potato spices and mix it. Now put the soaked dry peas in a cooker and add baking soda and salt to it and boil it for 3 whistles.
When the dried peas boil, add coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, lemon juice and sugar to it. After mixing all the ingredients keep the peas aside. Now take maida flour and after kneading it once more, make small balls out of it. Take a ball and roll it out and cut it in half. After this, take half of the portion in your hand and give it a triangular shape and fill it with potato masala and close it by applying water on the edge.
Similarly prepare pea samosas one by one with all the spices and keep them aside in a plate. Now put oil in a pan and heat it on medium heat. After the oil is hot, according to the capacity of the pan, add pea samosa to it and deep fry it. After the samosas are golden and crispy from both the sides, take them out in a plate. Similarly fry all the pea samosas.
To make the chutney, take out the tamarind seeds and put them in a mixer jar. After this, grind them by adding garlic, green chili, sugar and salt as per taste. Now place the prepared samosa in a plate and break it by pressing it. Pour the prepared dry pea mixture over it. After this, put tamarind chutney and chaat masala on top.
