Flaky, delicious flavor packed puff pastry with samosa filling that is party friendly! Easy to make and great for a party, holiday appetizer or a tea time snack served with chutney and a cup of masala chai.
Add chopped mint leaves and mix. Turn off gas. Add lemon juice and mix. Set aside to cool.
¼ cup mint, 1 tsp lemon juice
Samosa Puff Pastry Pull Apart Wreath
Roll out defrosted puff pastry sheet to about 12X18 inches. (Note, Pepperidge farms provides two sheets of puff pastry. I just laid one on top of the other and rolled them out together)
2 puff pastry sheets
Spread a layer of cilantro chutney or cilantro mint chutney down center of rolled out puff pastry sheet.
Spread the samosa filling mix on top of the chutney in the middle.
Bring sides together and enclose the samosa filling. Where the puff pastry closes, press lightly together. Flip the roll so the seam where the roll is closed is on the bottom. Bring ends of the roll together to form a circle. Cut 2 inch slices around the circle from 2/3 of the bottom of the wreath edge. Keep the inner circle of the wreath connected, do not cut that part.
Pick each slice of samosa and slightly turn out facing in one direction. Brush the puff pastry with a light coat of milk to help it brown.
3-4 tbsp milk
Bake at 400F for about 35-45 minutes. Check in at 35 minutes. Once browned, it is ready. Serve with a sweet chutney in the center in a bowl. See post and notes for links to chutneys.
