Add potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 8 minutes or until potatoes are light golden brown, stirring frequently. Add peas, curry powder, lemon juice and pepper; cook and stir until thoroughly heated, mashing slightly as mixture cooks.

4 Meanwhile, in blender, place sauce ingredients. Cover; blend until smooth. Refrigerate until serving time. Garnish samosas with remaining chiles. Serve warm with sauce.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Samosas originated in India as snacks sold from street pushcarts. They are usually fried pastries filled with veggies, meat or a combination filling. Look for these "street food" snacks in East Indian restaurants, usually under appetizers.

We really enjoyed these! I would suggest getting authentic samosa pasties! Stay away from having the urge to add additional salt... I found out the hard way!
