1 thing i would say about the pastry is id be templed to ad a splash of lemon juice at the mix stage to add some flavour to it otherwise it can be abit bland if your not having a dip with it

Hi Jamie,

Ok, this was my effort tonight:



I used the flash on this pic, maybe shouldn't have?



Same pic, without flash



These were fantastic ;D  Next time, I will only add 1/4 tsp of all purpose seasoning, other than that, bang on.  BTW, Jamie, I don't think it needs any lemon juice, the pastry was perfect. 

I deep fried them, hope that's how you do them :, and they turned out great.

Cheers mate,

Ray

SS,

You need to remember, I'm a Manc and if you stand still for too long in Manchester, someone will have it away wit your trainers ;D

Jamie,

They weren't too big, I had about 4 pastry balls left which I've frozen.  I will give your veg filling a crack but, It was the pastry that intrigued me from your initial pics.  It looked just like my fave BIR samosa.  And the pastry was absolutely beautiful, light and crispy but moist all the same.

A keeper for sure,

Cheers,

Ray

Following example by example, I just had to try the pastry recipe having been spurred on by both of you.

I added Ajwain seeds to my pastry and used a Lamb keema that consisted: Lamb, potato, peas, green chilli, GG, black Cumin Seeds, cumin, chilli, turmeric, corriander and salt. Would have liked them a little hotter, but I was cooking it for the kids as well.

Jamie, your a star the pastry works well. Though I need to perfect my rolling. I might actually try using my pasta rolling machine next time and employ the method I use when using the pre-made sheets.

Well done Axe,

They look awesome.  The pastry is bang on isn't it?  Did you deep fry them also?

If I was you, I would repost the full recipe in the same section that I posted mine because, I don't know if it's the same on your screen but, there is a bleedin great big google advert running right through the middle of your pic
