  13. Working with one wrap at a time, position the wrap directly in front of you oriented as a diamond with each point pointing in a compass direction.
  14. Place a generous teaspoon of the filling in the center of the diamond, wet the edges of the diamond with a little water and fold the bottom half of the diamond up over the top half and the filling forming a triangle.
  15. Press the edges slightly to seal and then place on a dish.
  16. Continue this process until all the wrappers and the filling have been used up.
  17. 2.
  18. After all the Samosas are formed, either heat about 4-inches of oil in a large pot to 375 degrees F over medium high heat or place the manufacturers suggested amount of oil in the container of a deep fryer and heat it to 375 degrees F.
