Easy Crescent Samosa (Indian Style Sandwiches)

Description: Easy to make baked version of the delicious filled Indian sandwiches. Vegetarian, mild and so simple. Make it spicier if you wish by adding more curry powder or a bit of cayenne. I adapted this from a Pillsbury bake-off winning recipe. Great snack, appetizer, or main dish! Serve with this yummy honey sauce!

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups cooked diced potatoes
• 1 cup cooked diced carrot
• 1/2 cup canned sweet peas or 1/2 cup frozen sweet peas, thawed
• 5 teaspoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon dried cilantro
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 dash red pepper flakes
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 (8 ounce) packages crescent rolls
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes

Steps:

1. Saute onion and garlic in oil 5 minutes until onion is soft.
2. Add all other ingredients except crescent rolls.
3. Stir gently over medium heat for several minutes until well incorporated.
4. Set aside.
5. Heat oven to 375°F.
6. Open cans of crescent rolls and unroll the dough.
7. Separate into 4 rectangles and pinch the triangular perforations to seal.
8. Cut each rectangle in half crosswise to make squares (you'll have 8 squares per can of crescent rolls).
9. You may have to coax the dough gently with your hands to make it square and to close up the perforations.
10. Spoon a heaping spoonful of filling in the center of each square and fold over to make a triangle.
11. Pinch the edges to seal.
12. Bake on cookie sheets sprayed with Pam for 12-15 minutes until golden.
