Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the chopped cilantro and parsley. Let the filling cool completely.

Lay out a spring roll wrapper or samosa pastry sheet. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the cooled beef filling near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling to create a triangle, then continue folding in a triangular motion until you reach the end of the wrapper. Seal the edge with a little of the flour-water paste.

💡 Consejos de Profesional
- ✓Ensure the filling is completely cool before assembling the sambusas to prevent the wrappers from becoming soggy.
- ✓If using spring roll wrappers, you may need to cut them into strips or use multiple layers for a sturdier sambusa.
- ✓For a healthier option, sambusas can be baked in the oven at 375°F (190°C) until golden brown, brushing them with oil first.
