Beef Samosa (Tortilla Pockets) - folded tortilla shells stuffed with savory seasoned meat and veggies sealed and baked until crispy on the outside and stuffed with flavor on the inside.
– 1 lb ground beef
– 2 teaspoons Montereal Steak Spice
– 1/4 teaspoon turmeric optional
– 1/4 teaspoon coriander optional
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or to taste
– sea salt to taste
– 1 medium onion
– 1/3 cup red bell pepper finely chopped
– 1/3 cup green onion chopped
– 5-6 flour tortillas if using raw - slightly cooked
– 1 cup mozzarella cheese grated
Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Break it up into crumbles as it cooks and add all of the spices. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add in the onion and continue to sauté for 5 minutes, again, stirring occasionally. Next, add the bell pepper and green onion and cook for another 5 minutes. Continue stirring every couple of minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Do a little taste test. If it needs salt, add some. Sprinkle with cheese overtop and allow the residual heat to melt it. Set it aside.
Grab your tortillas, and cut them in half. Take one half and fold it into a cone or a triangle. A cone would wrap around the edges a bit more (like a hug). A triangle would be where the seams would meet, but not wrap around each other.
Use some more of the flour glue to seal all the edges so that it is completely closed. Place it onto a prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Place them in the oven to broil for about 1-2 minutes per side. Turn once until nicely golden on both sides. You can also bake them instead at 400 degrees for about 12-15 minutes. Enjoy!
