• ½ tsp caraway seeds • Mixing bowl

Pantry Ingredients required:

• 220g plain flour • 120ml lukewarm water

pour the oil into it. Using your fingertips combine the oil into the flour until
it makes a breadcrumb like texture.

2. Once this has been done add in the water and mix together using your
hands until it forms a rough and sticky like dough.

3. When the dough has formed turn it out onto a lightly floured chopping

place back in the mixing bowl and cover with a damp tea towel to rest/
prove for 30 minutes. While this is resting, continue with your next task,
making the samosa filling.
