Curried Lamb Samosas With Apricot Chutney

  1. In large bowl, whisk together flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add olive oil and, using fingertips, blend until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1/4 cup water and stir with fork just until mixture comes together.
  2. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl, cover with towel, and set aside to rest for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In medium saucepan over moderately high heat, heat oil. Add onion, garlic, ginger, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and saute until softened, about 4 minutes. Add lamb and saute until browned, about 8 minutes.
  4. Stir in curry powder and cumin and saute 2 minutes. Stir in wine and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid is almost completely absorbed, about 2 minutes. Stir in chicken stock, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until lamb is tender, about 30 minutes. (Lamb can be cooked ahead and refrigerated, covered, up to 24 hours.)
  5. While lamb is cooking, in medium saucepan over moderately high heat, combine potatoes and water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to moderately low and simmer, uncovered, until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain in colander, then transfer to large bowl and, using fork, gently mash. Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  6. In small saucepan over moderately high heat, boil peas in
  7. until tender, about 1 minute for frozen and 5 minutes for fresh. Drain, rinse under cold running water, and drain again. Transfer to bowl with potatoes.
  8. When lamb is tender, transfer to food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not pureed. Transfer to bowl with potatoes and peas. Add cilantro and fold mixture to combine. (Filling can be made ahead and refrigerated, covered, up to 8 hours.)
  9. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into ball.
  10. On floured surface, using rolling pin, roll out 1 ball to 6-inch-diameter circle. Spoon about 2 tablespoons filling into center. Moisten finger with cold water and run around inside edge of dough circle.
  11. Imagining circle as face of clock, grasp edge at 2 o'clock and pull up over center of filling. Work around edge, pulling up at 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 o'clock positions and crimping edges where they come together to seal, to form bundle resembling a truncated pyramid. Transfer to large baking sheet.
  12. Repeat to form remaining samosas. (Samosas can be formed ahead and refrigerated on baking sheet, loosely covered with plastic wrap, up to 2 hours.)
  13. In heavy 6-quart pot over moderately high heat, heat 4 inches of oil until thermometer registers 350u0b0F. Working in batches of 3 and returning oil to 350u0b0F between batches, fry samosas until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towel-lined platter to drain.
  14. Serve immediately with apricot chutney.
