Place flour and baking powder and salt into a bowl and mix well

Stir in the cold water bringing the mixture together to form a rough dough
Place the dough into a floured bowl and cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
Peel potatoes and cut into small cubes. Place into a saucepan of boiling water and boil until soft. Add the frozen peas for the last minute, drain and set aside.
Place oil into frypan and turn to medium heat, add the diced onion, garlic and ginger. Cook until slightly browned.
Add the spices and continue to cook for a few minutes.
Turn heat off and add the potatoes and peas, lemon juice and chopped coriander and stir to combine.
Take the dough out of the bowl and using both hands roll the dough into a long cylinder.
Using a knife cut 10 -12 equal slices of dough, then roll each one into a small round.
Place a heaped tablespoon of filling in the centre of each round of dough then fold up the sides and press to seal.
Place the samosa on a lined tray and put in the oven, bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
