Sattu stuffing preparation:

2. Add salt to taste and mix all ingredients well with hands.
3. Add mustard oil (sarson ka tel) to the mixture.
4. Now squeeze the lemon juice into the mixture and mix again with hands. (remove the lemon seeds if any)
5. Take some sattu mixture in your hand as if making a ball. If it starts binding the stuffing mixture is ready, otherwise add more oil and mix well with hands. Do not add water to the sattu mixture.

Dough preparation:

1. In a big plate take some all purpose flour (maida) for prepraring its dough.
2. Add carom seeds (ajwain), onion seeds (mungrel or kalonji) and salt to taste in the maida. Mix all the ingredients well with hands.
3. Now add refined oil to the maida mixture and star mixing with hands. Add enough oil so that the maida mixture begins to bind. (Approximately 100 gms of oil is required to  moin 250 gms of all purpose flour (maida))
4. Now add a little water to the mixture and start forming a tough dough. (Remember the dough prepared should not be soft otherwise the mathri prepared from it will begin to swell like poori while frying)
5. Cover the dough prepared and keep it to rest for 5 minutes.

Samosa preparaation:

1. Now prepare small balls of the dough and roll them into small pedas or tikkis (as shown in the image below).
2. Roll these pedas into flat oval shaped chapatis as shown in the image below. Cut these chapatis into equal halves.
3. Now take some water in a bowl and apply it on the edges of the chapatis with finger. This step will help to bind the edges after stuffing and prevent the samosa from opening while frying.
4. Place some sattu stuffing at the center of the chapatis and bring the edges together to form the samosa dumpling as shown in the images below.
5. Fold the round edges of the samosa dumpling and keep the samosa prepared straight.
