 Step1: Make a dough:in  a midium bowl,add the flour, salt and celery seeds. Drizzle in the oil and work with the fingure until the mixture is smooth. Slowly add water,Stirlling until the soft dough formed. If the dough look too dry, add a tablespoon of water;if it look wet, add a tablespoon of flour. Knead for 1 minute and make a ball . Wrap and set aside for 30 minutes.

Step2: Make the filling: boil the potatos and peas in salted water for 10 to 15 minutes.Take out and set aside to cool. Put 2 tablespoon of oil in a deep, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat.Add onion, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until soft and brown, 8 to 10 minuts.

Step3: put one tablespoon of oil in a very small pan over medium heat. When hot,add cumin seeds.When the seeds are fragrant and start sprouting, add garlic, ginger,chilli,turmeric and hot spices and stir. let it cook for a minute,then add the contents of the pan to the onion.

Step4: Add the mashed potatoes and carrots and stir well to coat.Check the spice and adjust the salt. Pour the mixture into a bowl and allow to cool to room temprature. when cool, add lemon juice and chopped red pepper. In this process, break the potatoes a little and mix well.

Step5: Make samosas. Divide the flour into 20 pieces, each weighting 1 1/2 ounces. shape each piece into a ball and place on a large plate. Cover with a damp cloth.

                  

Step6: Roll each dough ball into a thin disc about 6 inches in diameter, as if the pie were taking out the dough. Cut each disc in half, leaving 2 pieces with a straight side and a round side.

Step7: make a cone by  floding each half of the disc and pressing the right sides together. Open 3 tablespoons of filling on the round side, then close it with a click and make a full triangle. Make the remaining flour balls into samosas.

Step8: Heat about 2 inches of oil at the bottom of the work over medium-high heat. Adjust the heat to keep the oil at 350 degrees.Put 4 samosas in hot oil at a timeand fry on one side till golden, then turn and cook on the other side. Remove from oil and place on paper towels.
