Samosas (Frugal)

RecipeLand.com kitchens here: These are one of our favorites. A great company dish while entertaining. We use the ready-made egg roll wraps from the supermarket to save time. If you find the number of spices on the list intimidating have no fear. Simply use a tablespoon or so of all-purpose curry powder to replace the long list of spices. We make these regularily to freeze and re-heat. They freeze extremely well and microwave or even better oven reheating is a snap. There are many variations to this recipe on the site. Just search for 'samosa'. Serve with an Apple Ginger or other Fruit Chutney or eggroll (Plum) sauce.
