Now add cold water and knead a hard dough. In a pan, add coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and fennel seeds and roast them lightly. Transfer them into a motor-pastel and crush them coarsely, and keep aside for further use. In a pan, add ghee, ginger, garlic, and green chillies, and sauté for a minute. Now add raisins, turmeric powder, degi red chilli powder, asafoetida, potatoes, and green peas, and mash them coarsely. Mix everything properly, cover, and cook for four to five minutes on medium heat. Now remove the cover and cook over high heat for three to four minutes, or until lightly charred. Add the prepared masala, black pepper powder, dry mango powder, and salt, and mix everything properly. Keep aside for further use. Take a medium portion of the dough, make a round peda and roll it thin in an oval shape. Now cut in from the centre, take one half of it, shape it into a cone, and add the filling. Make all others in a similar way. Heat the oil in a kadhai over medium heat and fry the samosas until golden brown on all sides; remove onto absorbent paper. Serve hot with tomato ketchup.
