Pinwheel samose is  prepared with the same ingredients which we use in making samosas. The difference between the two is of its wrapping, and of course  its shape too.  Samosas are made in triangle shape while pinwheel samosas are made in round wheel shape. It is a very tempting tea time snack.  Here below is its full recipe:

1/2 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp of ajvain
1/4 cup of oil
1/3 cup of water to knead flour

2.  Now spread the potato mixture on it and slightly roll above potato mixture to make it smooth. Sorry, I forgot to take photo of this step. It is missing in collage.
3. Next roll it tightly. Wrap this roll in cling film and roll it with hands on the board. 
4.  Now remove the wrap and cut it into pinwheel samosas pieces.
5.  Press each piece between the palms very gently.
