2 tbsps ghee

1 tbsp pistachio slivers

1 cup sugar

Oil for deep-frying

Preparation

Combine chocolate and pistachio in a bowl. Mix well and add one tsp castor sugar and mix well.

Divide the dough into eight equal portions and roll out into medium size rotis. Cut the rotis into halves.

Apply water on one edge half and roll into a small cone. Reserve some chocolate mixture for garnishing and place a spoonful of the chocolate mixture from the remaining into the cone and seal to make a samosa. Similarly prepare the remaining.
