Samosa With Tortillas | Instant Samosa | How to make Tortilla samosa (with no dough) Samosa are fried or baked pastry with savory filling , generally stuffed with peas, potatoes, or even lentils. India is know for its various fried snacks and this is one snack we love to enjoy at home.I have made samosa quite sometime but when we carve for samosa badly it needs prior thinking to make the samosa of tea time snack isn't it. When ever we had leftover rotis we used to fry them and relish them with some chaat masala sprinkled on it so I thought why not try to stuff some filling into it and fry them , I had a packet of tortilla lying round so used them as the crust for making this instant samosa. Believe me it tastes really like a samosa with a very crispy crust and guess what you don't have to think prior it is that quick to make , you only have to concentrate on the filling.

Now take the tortillas, cut them in half, you can make 2 samosa from one tortilla. Cut them and keep it ready.
Now for making the glue to stick the samosa in a small bowl take all purpose flour and add 1 - 2 tbsp of water.
Mix them well till they form a lump free paste. Note the consistency should be thick like a paste, it will not stick if the mixture is runny.
Take a cut tortilla and fold it like a cone, apply the all purpose flour glue in the corners to stick them. Make sure there is no gap in pointed part of the cone.
Fill the potato mixture pressing gently.
Seal the edges with the all purpose flour paste very well (by pressing the edges seal them well).
Do the same for rest of the tortillas and filling.
Heat oil in a kadai, when the oil is hot simmer the flame and slide in the samosas.
