      Yield: 20 servings
 
---------------------------DOUGH---------------------------
      1 c  Fine matzoh meal
      1    Egg; beaten
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/2 c  Cold water, approx.

------------------------VEGETABLES------------------------
      1 tb Corn oil
      1 md Onion; chopped
      1    Garlic clove; chopped
      1    Potato; peeled
           - cut into small pieces
    1/2 c  Cauliflower (chopped)
      1    Carrot; chopped (1/2 C.)
    1/2 c  Green peas, fresh or frozen
    1/2 c  Thin-sliced green beans
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Freshly ground black pepper
      1 c  Corn oil, for deep-frying
 
  Mix the meal, egg and salt together, adding just
  enough water to make a moist dough that holds
  together. Set aside. Heat the oil in a skillet, add
  the onion and garlic, and stir-fry over moderate heat
  until light brown, about 3 min. Set aside. Take the
  potato and 1/2 C. each of any other 3 vegetables and
  blanch in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well. Add
  these to the pan with the onion and garlic and
  stir-fry over moderate heat for 3 minutes, to mix
  well. Add salt and pepper. Cool. Take 1 heaping T. of
  the dough and press it out on a flat surface into a 2
  1/2 inch square. Put 1 T. of the vegetable mixture on
  the bottom half of the square and fold it over into a
  triangle. Prepare all the samoosi this way. Heat the
  oil in a wok or skillet and brown the turnovers over
  moderate heat for about 3 minutes. Drain on paper
  towels. Serve warm. Makes about 20 turnovers.
