Spinach - Cheese Samosa

My recent shopping escapade can be recollected from here.
I wanted to bake something really nice from my ready made samosa sheets.
The perfect combination of cheese and palak came to my mind, I was already imagining the aroma and the melted cheese with the crunchy samosa cover :)
I sauted finely chopped onion in oil, added garlic, finely chopped palak.
Seasoned with thyme, oregano, fresh Italian basil leaves, salt and some pepper powder.
Added 1/2 cup of milk and then added the grated cheese. stirred well. Turned the gas off.
(If it turns too watery add 1- 2 tsp of corn flour)
Prepared the samosa sheets and folded them into neat parcels, brushed some butter on top and between the layers of the parcel. Set them in a greased tray and baked for 15 mins turning the sides after 5 mins to check for color. They were crispy and light from the outside and had a very flavourful and cheesy stuffing.

                                     
 Need of the hour : Availability of ready made rolled pastry in India!

 Spoonfuls of the palak(spinach) and cheese stuffing neatly folded up in the samosa sheets

And that' how you start packing ;)

Am going to use these samosa sheets for many more recipes and a lot of ideas are already popping in my head!
