👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a bowl, combine the finely chopped shrimp, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped coriander, chopped parsley, cumin powder, coriander powder, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
2
Prepare the flour and water paste by mixing 2 tablespoons of flour with 3 tablespoons of water until a smooth paste forms. This will be used to seal the sambousek wrappers.
3
Lay a sambousek wrapper flat. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the shrimp filling near one corner. Fold the wrapper to form a triangular or half-moon shape, ensuring the filling is enclosed. Use the flour and water paste to seal the edges securely.
4
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
5
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or pot over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough for frying but not smoking.
6
Carefully fry the sambousek in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
7
Remove the fried sambousek with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
8
Serve hot as an appetizer or part of an iftar meal.

Add a pinch of sumac to the filling for a tangy flavor.
Bake the sambousek instead of frying for a healthier option. Brush with oil and bake at 200°C (400°F) until golden.
