Tuna Samosa

Jazzing up traditional Samosa, so here it is stuffed with Tuna. Yumm!

Ingredients:

Fillo Dough (Samosa sheets)

Light Tuna

Onions

Tomatoes.

Rosemary

Thyme

Salt and Pepper

Mozzarella Cheese

Dried Mint.

Steps:

-Finely chop the tomato and onion.

-Drain the Tuna from its water. Add to it the chopped vegetables, and mix.

-Add the spices: a good pinch of thyme, rosemary, and lots of dried mint. Finish it with salt as much as you like, and a small pinch of black pepper. Mix all ingredients well, and smooth the tuna using a fork.

-Start stuffing the fillo dough with a good tbsp of the mix, and top it with mozzarella cheese.

-Then deep fry them. Et Bon Appetit. :)

Notes:

-If you're dieting, you can dispense with the frying step, and just get a pan, brush it with oil, and pop the samosa into the oven. It won't be puffy as when fried, but tastes really good as well.

Choux Patsry 1: Profiterole!

When you're down, you resort to the kitchen to get all it out.

This night witnessed some playing with the choux pastry, I'll post them in two parts.
I was bored, and I wanted to have some quick fun in the kitchen with basic ingredients. And this delicious crime was all worth it.

The first adventure is the classic Profiterole..with some twists.

Ingredients:

- Pre-made Choux Pastry balls.

-Whipped cream

-Chocolae sauce.

-Chocolate mousse. 

-Strawberries.

The Steps:

1-Cut the choux pastry balls open. Pipe whipped cream into them. I also stuffed some of them with  chocolate mousse!! And some were with whipped cream and thin strawberry slices hidden in there ;). 

2-Get a large bowl. Add some chocolate sauce to its bottom, and pipe some to the inside walls. Add a tbsp. of whipped cream, and wipe it with the chocolate sauce to have a thin coat. I added some strawberries as below for the base.

3- Add your whipped cream-stuffed choux balls, and cover the balls with chocolate sauce.

4-Add more stuffed choux balls on top of the previous layer. Fill in the gaps with some chocolate mousse.

5- Cover the balls with chocolate, and garnish the bowl with more strawberry slices.

6-Finish the topping with some whipped cream decorations and strawberries.

I also made small bowls of profiterole to just eat while watching a good movie.

..et Bon Appetit!

Side Notes:

-Instead of chocolate sauce, you can melt some chocolate.
-If chocolate mousse is unavailable, you can add some cocoa to the whipped cream to have chocolate cream.
-Try sprinkling crushed unsalted pistachios on top.
-All fresh choux pastry balls, chocolate mousse powder, and whipped cream are available at (Darb El Barabra) branches and are time-saving.
