Method
Heat 1 tbs of the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the cumin, ground coriander, turmeric and chilli and cook for 30 seconds. Add the potatoes, peas, fresh coriander and lemon juice and stir. Set aside to cool.
Use a 12cm round cutter to cut out 4 circles from each sheet of pastry. Working with one circle at a time, roll to make a cone shape. Place 2 tbs of the mixture into the centre and fold the top of the pastry over and pinch to close. Repeat with remaining pastry and filling.
Pour oil into a saucepan to one-third of the way up the side. Heat the oil over a medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (a cube of bread will be golden in 15 seconds). In batches, cook samosas for 2 minutes until puffed and golden. Drain on paper towel. Serve with tzatziki dip.
