• Pinch/ stick the pointed ends to make it perfect cone shape.

• Fill the cone with potato filling 1 to 2 tsp. and  do not overfill.

• The water apply on filling side all around a circumference of the cone as you have seal it. pinch the open side and seal the samosa.

• Repeat it for remaining dough balls.

• Heat oil in kadhai on low heat, drop small piece of dough in oil, after few seconds to come up surface, that means oil is ready for fry.
• Shaped samosa drop into oil. and well fry on both side, samosa will become light brown in color.

• If you fry samosa on high heat, they will not get crispy and dough will remain uncooked.
