Tuna Samosas

My recipe showcases my belongingness. All throughout middle school, I felt like an outcast for bringing my cultural food as lunch while everyone else ate pizza. Nowadays, I see many people online who show foods of different cultures in a positive light. I’d like to do that as well. This is why I believe samosas represent belongingness.

Ingredients

1 Pack of tortillas
Chopped jalapeno
2 cans of Tuna
2 carrots
Flour Mix Paste – 2 tbsp of flour, 1/4 cup of water

Instructions

In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add tuna to the skillet and cook it for a few minutes.
Next, add grated carrots and chopped jalapeno and mix well.
Once the mixture is dry, place it in a bowl.
In a small separate bowl, add flour and cold water for a glue texture.
Cut the tortilla into fourths.
Fold the corner of the cut tortilla and form a pocket like in the second picture.
Stuff the pocket with its filling.
Apply the flour paste to the ending strip of the samosa and press it down, folding it into a triangle.
In a skillet, heat oil for deep frying. Fry the samosas until they’re a golden brown color.
