Samosa or samoosa are one of the favorite street food in India. Its small triangular shaped pastry which is very crispy and tasty, filled with stuffings made with onions, mixed vegetables, and smashed potatoes, I love it when its stuffed with minced masala chicken.
In 2019 Ramzan I made loads of samosa and took it to my office, during my iftaar (breaking fast) I invited all my colleagues and they loved this lip smacking, tasty and crispy samosas. Sahil and Muzamil just gobbled through it and requested me to make and get some more. I miss you guys as you have moved to new role new place. Now do make it by yourself and do share reviews on my page how it tasted.
