Cooking chana dal
  1. Soak the chana dal in water for about 5-6 hours.

  3. Toss the chana dal lightly, taking care that the grains don't break.
  4. Add salt to taste, sugar and sauté them.
  5. Let the filling cool down completely.
For maida paste
  1. Take flour in a small bowl and add very little water to it.

To make a samosa
  1. Take Roti and cut down in three strips.
  2. The first fold would go a little beyond the edge and then on the opposite side, making a triangle.
  3. Spoon the filling inside the folded sheet.
  4. Then fold the remaining part of the sheet to close the opening used for filling and seal the corners with the help of the flour paste.
  5. Fry the samosas in a pot of oil on a medium flame for about 1 minute.
  6. Take them out, when they turn into golden brown colour.
