Samosas are a popular Indian appetizer known for their crispy, flaky exterior and savory, spiced filling. They are typically triangular in shape and can be filled with a variety of ingredients, though the most common filling includes 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 served with tangy tamarind chutney or mint chutney, making them a delightful and flavorful start to any meal. They are a beloved snack in India and have gained popularity worldwide for their delicious taste and satisfying crunch.
