Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb ground beef (or you can use boca burgers to make this vegetarian)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/3 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup picante sauce (or salsa)
1/2 cup crushed potato chip
1 (1 1/4 oz) envelope taco seasoning
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 tsp garlic powder (or 1 clove minced )
1 (500 g) package empanada wrappers (or samosa or won ton, about 50 sheets or wrappers)
1 egg, beaten
oil (for frying )

Directions:

Cook ground beef.
Add onion and peppers and cook awhile longer. Stir in picante sauce, potato chips, taco seasoning, cheese and garlic. Cook until heated through.
Let mixture cool slightly.
Using one sheet of the wrappers at a time, make a pocket (you will wrap these like you used to fold the American flag when you were a Girl Scout) and spoon in some filling (about a teaspoon). Begin folding in triangles along the length of the wrapper. Before the final fold, brush the egg on the last flap to help seal things.
Heat oil and fry sambosas until lightly brown.
(If you have a deep fryer, you can fry these up faster and easier.)
Serve hot.
(This recipe makes a LOT of filling.).
