Eggchef had mentioned a craving for samosas a while back, and I figured, why not a big one, instead of the bite-sized? So, here’s what emerged: all the flavour of samosas including the healthiness of the vegetables and the spices of the curry, wrapped in a delectable, flaky pastry crust. You will need a 10 inch spring-form pan for this recipe, which is fully vegan and a lot lower in fat than the deep-fried bites, and as a bonus it only gets better as it sits! Actually, it’s best made a day ahead and then reheated at 350F for 40-45 minutes.

I made this in my rice cooker yesterday: I set the timer and wandered away from it for a few hours. When I came home, the whole house smelled wonderful! Add a drizzle of good quality olive oil to finish it or wrap it in a tortilla for a very mobile lunch.

Serves 5 for dinner, more as a lunch box filler.

American Indian

This dish should be served with phulkas or rice. It can also be eaten as a sandwich filler or salad.

I have 1 serving of this to fill half a dinner plate and then fill the other half of the plate with a green salad.

Spicy indian bread

Soup usually eaten along with Indian Yellow Rice (Khichdi)

Serve with rice or flatbreads.
If using fresh instaed of frozen okra, it needs to be dried before cutting. Frozen can be added as it is.
Adjust spices to suit personal tastes.

This rice has a rich, creamy texture as if cheese had been added to it. The olive oil, onion, and turmeric have nice, mild flavor that compliments seafood, pork, & chicken as well as most vegetables (especially stir-fry). Add 1/2 cup chopped cooked broccoli to it as a substitute to substantially higher calorie/saturated fat broccoli/cheese rice. Each serving is 1/2 cup.

My favorite squash is Hubbard squash. I like to make this easy and delicious curry and serve it over brown rice or just have it plain.

Delicious and slightly spicy beef curry with a definite coconut flavor. This easy recipe is the perfect use of a crock pot!
