Step 1
Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, ~12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium. Add diced onion and cook until golden, ~5 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until fragrant, ~30 seconds.
Step 4
Add cumin-coriander blend and stir for 10 seconds, then add peas.
Step 5
Dice cooled potatoes into 1/4-inch pieces. Add to the skillet, stir gently, season with salt and pepper. Cool 5 minutes.
Step 6
Place one phyllo sheet on a work surface. Brush lightly with oil. Cut into 3-inch-wide strips.
Step 7
Spoon 1 tbsp filling onto the lower-left corner of a strip, then fold into a triangle, pressing edges to seal.
Step 8
Place samosas seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining oil.
Step 9
Bake at 400°F until golden and crisp, ~18 minutes. Edges should be deep brown.
