Home / glossary / Samosa

Samosas are a delightful and popular Indian snack known for their crispy, flaky exterior and savory filling. These triangular pastries are typically filled with a mixture of spiced potatoes, peas, and sometimes meat like chicken or lamb. The filling is encased in a thin pastry dough, which is then deep-fried until golden and crispy.

Samosas are often enjoyed with tangy tamarind chutney or mint chutney, adding a burst of flavor to every bite. They are a staple at Indian festivals, celebrations, and tea-time snacks, beloved for their satisfying crunch and flavorful filling.
