Vegetable Samosas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tbsp oil
    1 None small piece of fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
    1/2 tsp turmeric
    1 tsp cumin
    1/2 tsp coriander
    1/2 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 tsp cloves
    8 oz potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
    1 None carrot, peeled and coarsely grated
    2/3 cup frozen peas
    1 None egg
    12 sheets square frozen puff pastry, thawed for 10 mins at room temperature
    None None mango chutney for serving
Preparation
    Heat the oil in a large pan and add the ginger, turmeric, cumin, coriander, cinnamon and cloves and cook them briefly. Add the potatoes, and cook while stirring for 3-4 mins until they're slightly brown. Add the carrots and 6 tbsp of water. Cover, and cook for 5 mins over medium heat. Add the peas, cover, and cook for another 5 mins on a low heat. Season to taste, remove from heat and let cool.
    Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Whisk the egg and brush 6 sheets of pastry with it. Spread some of the filling in the middle of each sheet, leaving a margin around the edges. Put a sheet of pastry on top of each samosa and firmly press down the edges. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush with the remaining egg. Bake for 15-20 mins until golden.
    Serve warm or cold, with mango chutney on the side.
