Baked Spinach and Cheese Samosa

Baked Spinach and Cheese Samosa

Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)

1/2 cup feta cheese

1 cup spinach (I used the frozen kind which is already shredded, and squeezed out the water)

1/2 teaspoon garlic (minced)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 egg + 1 tablespoon water (combined to make the egg wash)

20 samosa pastry strips

1 cup flour + 1/2 cup water (mixed together to form a thick paste)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, feta cheese, spinach, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix until full incorporated. A couple of things to note: make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature so that it is easier to mix it. Also, all excess water should be squeezed out from the spinach.

Preheat oven to 400 F / 200 C and prepare a baking sheet by lightly greasing it with oil. Set aside.

Place a samosa pastry strip vertically on a plate / tray, and start by adding about 1-2 teaspoons of the spinach cheese on the bottom corner.

Fold the samosa pastry corner over the samosa filling. Then from the opposite side fold over the corner into the opposite direction. Continue until you have a triangle shaped parcel, and then using your finger to spread the flour / water paste seal over the rectangular flap of the samosa pastry over to completely seal the samosa. Do watch the video for a visual tutorial on how to fold the samosas.

Continue until all samosas have been filled.

Place prepared samosas on baking sheet and lightly brush each samosa with egg wash on both sides.

Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the samosas are golden brown and crispy.

Serve immediately.

It's possible to trade profitably on the Forex, the nearly $2 trillion worldwide currency exchange market. But the odds are against you, even more so if you don't prepare and plan your trades. According to a 2014 Bloomberg report, several analyses of retail Forex trading, including one by the National Futures Association (NFA), the industry's regulatory body, concluded that more than two out of three Forex traders lose money. This suggests that self-education and caution are recommended. Here are some approaches that may improve your odds of taking a profit. Prepare Before You Begin Trading Because the Forex market is highly leveraged -- as much as 50 to 1 -- it can have the same appeal as buying a lottery ticket: some small chance of making a killing. This, however, isn't trading; it's gambling, with the odds long against you. A better way of entering the Forex market is to carefully prepare. Beginning with a practice account is helpful and risk-free. While you're trading in your practice account, read the most frequently recommended Forex trading books, among them Currency Forecasting: A Guide to Fundamental and Technical Models of Exchange Rate Determination, by Michael R. Rosenberg is short, not too sweet and highly admired introduction to the Forex market. Forex Strategies: Best Forex Strategies for High Profits and Reduced Risk, by Matthew Maybury is an excellent introduction to Forex trading. The Little Book of Currency Trading: How to Make Big Profits in the World of Forex, by Kathy Lien is another concise introduction that has stood the test of time. All three are available on Amazon. Rosenberg's book, unfortunately, is pricey, but it's widely available in public libraries. "Trading in the Zone: Master the Market with Confidence, Discipline and a Winning Attitude," by Mark Douglas is another good book that's available on Amazon, and, again, somewhat pricey, although the Kindle edition is not. Use the information gained from your reading to plan your trades before plunging in. The more you change your plan, the more you end up in trouble and the less likely that elusive forex profit will end up in your pocket. Diversify and Limit Your Risks Two strategies that belong in every trader's arsenal are: Diversification: Traders who execute many small traders, particularly in different markets where the correlation between markets is low, have a better chance of making a profit. Putting all your money in one big trade is always a bad idea. Familiarize yourself with ways guaranteeing a profit on an already profitable order, such as a trailing stop, and of limiting losses using stop and limit orders. These strategies and more are covered in the recommended books. Novice traders often make the mistake of concentrating on how to win; it's even more important to understand how to limit your losses. Be Patient Forex traders, particularly beginners, are prone to getting nervous if a trade does not go their way immediately, or if the trade goes into a little profit they get itchy to pull the plug and walk away with a small profit that could have been a significant profit with little downside risk using appropriate risk reduction strategies. In "On Any Given Sunday," Al Pacino reminds us that "football is a game of inches." That's a winning attitude in the Forex market as well. Remember that you are going to win some trades and lose others. Take satisfaction in the accumulation of a few more wins than losses. Over time, that could make you rich!
