Burrito Samosas
OH JEEEZ, we are jealous that you are getting to try out this recipe for the first time... because we know it will blow your socks off. This is a great vegan lunch box idea, vegan party food, or perhaps you'd make it as a plant based starter. In fact it is such a quick and easy veggie recipe with so much reward. Not only is it DELICIOUS, but it's also packed with tons of vegetables, herbs and spices to boost our immune systems and get our veggies in. We're really proud of this recipe. We like to think we've dreamt up some pretty good recipes since launching BOSH! & these Burrito Samosas are right up there with the best. A great vegan Indian snack recipe.

Before you start
Preheat oven to 200°C l Frying pan l Baking tray lined with parchment paper
Boil the potatoes
- Peel the potatoes and chop them into 1cm chunks
- Put them into the medium saucepan and add just enough water to cover
- Put the pan on a high heat and bring to the boil, then immediately reduce the heat to medium and simmer until cooked, about 10 minutes
- Take the pan off the heat and drain the potatoes through a colander
Prepare the ingredients
- Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the red onion and garlic
- Cut the pepper in half and cut out the stem and seeds, then finely chop
- Rip the stem from the chilli, cut it in half lengthways and remove the seeds if you prefer a milder flavour, then finely chop
Cook the filling
- Put the large frying pan on a medium heat and add the vegetable oil
- Once it’s hot, add the minced vegetables and fry until soft, about 10 minutes
- Add the smoked paprika, ground coriander, cumin, 1 tablespoon of the Tabasco and a pinch of salt to the pan and stir everything together
- Add the potatoes to the pan and stir until they’ve taken on all the colours and flavours and begun to crisp up slightly on the sides, about 10 minutes
- Drain the black beans and tip them into the pan
- Stir until warmed through
- Take the pan off the heat and transfer the contents to a mixing bowl
Add the rice and lime
- Tip the pre-cooked rice into a mixing bowl and fluff it with a fork
- Cut the limes in half and squeeze over the juice, catching any pips in your other hand
- Scatter over the coriander leaves, a pinch of salt and 1⁄2 teaspoon of the Tabasco and stir them into the rice
Assemble the dish
- Take one of the tortillas and cut into 5 equal-sized triangles
- Cut across the curved edge of each triangle so that you have three straight sides
- Set aside these triangles, which will be used to seal your samosas
- Take another tortilla and lay it out on a clean work surface
- Take about one-fifth of the rice and place it in the centre of the tortilla
- Follow with one-fifth of the dairy-free cheese and then one-fifth of the potato mixture
- Shape the filling roughly into triangles with your hands, making sure it is in the middle of the tortilla
- Place one of the tortilla triangles on top of the ingredients and press down slightly
- Brush the rim of the round tortilla as well as the tortilla triangle with water (this will act as a glue to stick them together)
- Fold the edges of the tortilla into the middle to form a triangle
- Put the ‘samosa’ on the lined baking tray, fold side down
- Repeat with the remaining samosas
Cook the dish
- Put the tray in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, until the samosas are crisp to the touch
- Remove from the oven and serve!
