Make the pastry
Rub the oil and ½ teaspoon of salt into the flour with your fingers until crumbly. Add the cold water and knead for about 2 minutes into a firm, smooth dough, then cover and rest for 30 minutes.

- 60ml oil
- ½ tsp salt
- 90ml cold water
✅ C'est prêt quand : dough is smooth, firm, and no longer sticky

Cook the meat filling
Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the onion for about 6 minutes until soft and light golden. Add the ginger-garlic paste and chilies and cook 1 minute until fragrant, then add the lamb, raise the heat to high, and cook until browned. Stir in the garam masala, coriander, chili powder, peas, and 1 teaspoon of salt, and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring, until the mixture looks dry. Off the heat, stir in the herbs and lemon juice, then let the filling cool completely before using.

The Story Behind the Dish
The earliest samosas eaten in India were filled with meat — medieval chroniclers describe minced meat pastries served at the courts of the Delhi Sultanate.
Keema samosas remain especially popular among Muslim communities, where they're an essential part of the iftar meal that breaks the fast during Ramadan.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Crisp, meaty and fragrant with mint, keema samosas are the original — and many say the best — samosa.
💡 Fun Fact
In Hyderabad and Mumbai, smaller keema samosas made with thin pastry sheets are called 'lukhmi' or 'patti samosa'.
