- Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- In a medium bowl, mash the Kiri square portions with a fork.
- Drain the cooked spinach mixture to get rid of excess water and mix it with the mashed Kiri.
Assemble the Rolls
- In a small bowl, add water and flour and mix to make the flour paste.
- Cut the samosa leaves with a knife to create long rectangular strips (5 cm x 30 cm).
- Place 2 teaspoons of the filling at the top of each of the samosa leaf strips. Shape the triangular samosas.
- Place some of the flour paste at the end of the samosa leaf strips to seal up the pastry. Freeze the triangles for at least 30 minutes.
Bake the Samosas
- Place the rolled samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg and soy sauce.
- Brush the samosas with the egg mixture and sprinkle with the nigella seeds, then bake in a preheated oven at 180C for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Serve immediately!
