  17. Boil the potatoes and dice into small cubes. (I just microwaved them in a bowl of water)
  18. Coarsely crush the spices in a mortar and pestle. I happen to love the taste and texture of freshly ground spices. You can use garam masala or finely powder the spices.

  26. Cut into 3 inch squares.
  27. Put each square into an ungreased muffin pan.
  28. Add 1 or 1.5 tsp of filling in each cup
  29. Bake at 400 degrees for about 12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  30. Serve wth condiments of your choice (tomato sauce, chilli sauce, coriander chutney, or tamarind chutney)
  31. One sheet of pastry dough makes about 25 shamosas.
