Serves 2 generously
Suitable for freezing
1 tbsp sunflower oil, plus 2 tsp for brushing and sealing
1 small red onion, finely chopped
8 green beans, finely chopped
1 tbsp frozen peas
1 carrot, grated
2 tsp garam masala
juice of 1 unwaxed lemon

Cut the tortillas in half. Place one-quarter of the filling onto each tortilla half, then fold to create a triangle. Use a pastry brush to apply a little sunflower oil along the inside edges of the samosas to seal them. Then brush a little over the top of the samosas. Bake for 5–6 minutes until golden.
Serve hot or cold.
