I found a recipe online for Indian Chicken Curry (on Nutritional Weight and Wellness). The results were a bit meh...
But I had so much leftover that I tweaked it a bit and turned them into some pretty awesome samosas. Here is a reduced recipe that will get you 18 decent sized samosas out of it with maybe a bit left.
Indian Curry Samosas
2 t. coconut oil
1 lb. chicken thighs, cut in smaller pieces
1/2 c. chicken broth
1/2 can coconut milk
2 1/2 T. curry powder, red or yellow, or mix. (I used both with a lot more red than yellow)
1/8 t. cayenne pepper
3 c. cauliflower, cut in bit sized pieces
1 c. sweet potato, diced
1 c. green beans cut in bit sized pieces
1 box puff pastry sheets
1 egg
Toss the cauliflower and sweet potatoes in some oil and roast them at 375 degrees until softer. 15 minutes maybe?
Melt coconut oil in a large skillet. Brown the chicken thighs on all sides and remove from the pan to cool. Dice the chicken a bit more.
In the same skillet, add the broth, coconut milk, and curry. Bring it to a simmer.
Add the cauliflower, sweet potatoes and green beans and cook until the beans are tender.
Add the chicken and mix together.
Let is cool a bit and then add everything to a food processor to chop things up a bit. It should not be runny!
Roll each sheet of pastry into a larger square on a floured surface. Cut each into 9 square, 18 total.
Plop 3 T. or so of the filling in the middle of each square.
Brush the edges with beaten egg and fold over diagonally.
Seal the edges with fork tines.
Place the puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat. Bake at 400 degrees for about 18 minutes, until puffy and nicely browned.
