1. Sieve the flour and salt together in a bowl. You can add a little more or less salt to taste if you desire.
2. Add the ghee or oil. Mix it in with your fingers, working with a handful of flour at a time. Keep mixing until all of the flour is coated with fat and a dough has begun to form. It should still be quite dry and flaky.
3. Mix in 5 tablespoons of water. Use your finger to work the water into the dough to loosen it up. The consistency should be soft and pliable, but not wet. Add more water if necessary.
4. Turn out the dough and knead it. Put the dough on a clean surface and knead it with your hands for about 4 minutes, until it is smooth and slightly shiny. Form it into the shape of a ball.
5. Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes. Cover it with plastic wrap. Let it rest on the counter while you make the filling.This will help the dough achieve a better texture.
6. Now for the filling : - Heat the ghee in a large saucepan,Toast the cumin seeds. Toasting the seeds brings out the best in their flavor and scent. Toast them until the room becomes fragrant and the seeds start to crackle, about 30 seconds. Place it over medium high heat and allow the ghee to get hot.

Sauté the spices and fold them into the mixture for one minute.Add the potatoes and peas. Stir the mixture gently and cook until the potatoes become dry, which should take about 3 minutes. Mix well and mash lightly.
8. Divide the dough into eight equal portions. You can use a measuring cup, but it's easier to just eyeball it. - Roll in each round into small balls.In this case, each one should be about 6 inches (15.2 cm) in diameter. Use a rolling pin or press the balls into shape with your fingers. - Cut each flat circle into two halves. Use a knife to slice each one in half.
9. Stuff and fold the samosas.Spoon 2 teaspoons of filling into the center of a piece of dough, then bring the edges together to form a cone shape. Seal the edges carefully using a little water. (You can also make paste using flour and water for easier sealing). - Use your fingers to press the edges of each samosa into place. - For a lovelier edge, you can use a fork to press the edges together. - Repeat with the remaining and filling.As you finish filling each one, set it aside on a plate.
