Directions
Mix 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup chopped leftover cooked vegetables (such as carrots or green beans), 1/2 cup thawed frozen peas, 1/4 teaspoon curry powder and 1 tablespoon each chopped cilantro, mint and ginger; season with salt and cayenne pepper. Roll a sheet of puff pastry into a 14-inch square, then cut into 25 smaller squares and place 1 tablespoon filling in the center of each. Brush the edges with a beaten egg, fold into triangles and press to seal. Bake at 350 degree until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Mix yogurt with leftover cranberry sauce for dipping.

These were a pleasant surprise! I had low expectations because a I was just looking for some thanksgiving leftover recipes, and b I thought "real" samosas weren't made with frozen puff pastry. And while the puff pastry took a little getting used to, the filling tasted very authentic (as compared with Indian restaurants I've been to.
I used 1/2 cup of chopped frozen carrots and 1/2 cup frozen peas for my veggies. The only ingredient I omitted was the cilantro just because I didn't have any. Finally, this is kid friendly, too--even baby friendly since they are so soft. My kids loved them.
