Heat a pan and add all the ingredients mentioned in "For Stuffing" section (except ghee). On a low flame, stir until the ingredients mix properly and the coconut is little fried.

The stuffing should be sticky such that if you compress, it should stick together. Once it’s done, add ghee and give a quick mix. Remove it from the flame and keep aside.

For the dough, mix all the ingredients as mentioned in "For The Dumpling Dough" section together and knead a smooth dough.
- 4
Cut small balls from the dough. With the help of your fingers, press the balls to make bowl shapes.

Now, stuff them with coconut stuffing and seal the edges to make stuffed round dumplings.

In a greased steamer pan, place the dumplings and cover the lid. Steam the dumplings for 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, check if the dumplings are properly cooked. Check the dumplings and if they are sticky, it’s not done. In that case, steam for another 5-6 minutes.

While traditional samosa or singara (that's what we Bengalis call it) are filled with a spicy potato filling, this one comes with a sweet filling made of reduced milk, milk solids and semolina, laced in sticky sugar syrup. The filling can also be made of chhana or cottage cheese, but I like the kheer version more.The given proportion yields around 40 small samosas or 30 large ones.See more on my blog post here: http://www.allthatsdelicious.com/mishti-singara-recipe
