Ingredients


5 samosa patti
1 tbsp plain flour (maida) mixed with 1 tbsp water

To be mixed into a fillling
3/4 cup crumbled paneer (cottage cheese)
1/4 cup chopped spring onions
1 tbsp chilli-garlic sauce
1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese
2 tsp oil
salt to taste

Method

    For the filling
    1. Heat oil in a pan and sauté the spring onions till they are translucent.
    2. Add all the remaining ingredients including the salt and mix well.
    3. Cook for about 2 minutes and then divide into 10 equal portions. Keep aside.

    How to proceed
    1. Cut each samosa patti into 2 to get 125 mm. x 75 mm. (5" x 3") rectangular pieces. You will get 10 pieces in all.
    2. Mix the flour and water to make flour paste. Keep aside.
    3. Place a portion of the filling at one corner of the samosa patti piece. Roll it up tightly starting from the end where the filling is placed to make a cigar.
    4. Seal the edge of the samosa patti piece using a little of the flour paste.
    5. Repeat for the remaining pattis and filling.
    6. Deep fry the cigars in hot oil till golden brown. Drain on absorbent paper.
    7. Serve hot with hot garlic sauce.
