Take your risen dough from the bowl and cut into 6 balls. Roll out the balls to 7 inches circles and put aside. After rolling out all the 6 balls apply oil and sprinkle some flour on the upper side as you stack the dough circles together to make 1 chapati. Make sure the circles facing each other are all oiled. Place our stacked circles on a floured surface and roll out as you flip to make one big chapati

Cut the papers into halves then into quarters. Place the samosa pockets on a bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel to prevent drying up.

Use 1/4 cup and little water to make a thick paste that will act as glue to bind the edges. On the quartered sheets bind the circular edges together and bind them together. Repeat the process with all the samosa sheets. Fill your samosa pockets with 11/2 tbsp with the filling and apply our paste glue on the flap. Tuck in and seal your samosa pockets.
