In a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, and oil/ghee.
Rub the oil into the flour until it becomes crumbly in texture.
Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth, stiff dough. Cover it with a damp cloth and set aside for 15-20 minutes.

Add turmeric, red chili powder, and salt, mixing well.
Cover and cook on low heat until the potatoes are soft.
Add green peas and cook for another 2-3 minutes, if using.
Sprinkle garam masala, mix, and let it cool.

3. Shape and Fill the Singaras:

Divide the dough into small balls and roll each ball into a small circle.
Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of the dough circle.
Fold and pinch the edges to form a unique shape, making sure they’re sealed
well.
