Ingredients:

Samosadilla

  • 3 pounds Idaho® Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
  • 3 tablespoons Kosher salt
  • 6 tablespoons oil, separated
  • 6 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 3 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoon Garam masala
  • 2 ounce Serrano chili, seeded, minced
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoon ginger, peeled and minced
  • 3 cups green peas
  • 6 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 12 - 10’’ flour tortillas
  • 1 cilantro bunch, left on the stem for garnish 
  • 3 red bell pepper, seeded and julienned
  • 12 Serrano chilies, whole for garnish
  • 12 mint sprigs
  • 4½ pounds cheese of choice (optional)

Cilantro Lime Chutney

  • 1½ cups fresh cilantro
  • ¾ cups fresh lime juice
  • 2 cups fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoons Kosher salt
  • ¾ cup Serrano chili, seeded and minced
  • 1½ cups green onions, sliced
  • 3 cups Greek nonfat plain yogurt

Directions:

Samosadilla

  1. Cut potatoes into ¼-inch cubes. Transfer into a pot with enough cold water to completely cover the potatoes. Stir in 1 tablespoon of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Simmer over medium heat until cubes are tender but still hold their shape, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes in a colander and set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion. Cook and stir until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the one teaspoon of kosher salt and garam masala in a small bowl and set aside.
  4. Add serrano pepper, garlic, ginger, spice mix, and the remaining kosher salt to the onions. Cook and stir until mixture is well combined, about 2 minutes. Add peas; cook until heated through and slightly tender, about 3 minutes.
  5. Transfer mixture into a bowl with the potatoes. Add cilantro and lemon juice. Mix with a spatula until filling is well combined, with some potatoes partially mashed.
  6. Spread 6 ounces of the filling in the center of one flour tortilla. Flatten the filling out to about a 3” diameter. Add cheese if desired at a 1 to 1 ratio with the amount of potato mixture (about 6 ounces). Fold the tortilla up and crease over the filling and continue to repeat around the entire tortilla. Repeat with the remaining filling and tortillas.
  7. Heat the remaining avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook each quesadilla until browned and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer quesadilla onto your work surface and cut it into half.
  8. Serve with cilantro-lime chutney, fresh cilantro, spring onion, sliced serrano peppers, julienned red bell pepper, and fresh mint.
