Hyderabadi samosa is a popular snack from the vibrant cuisine of Hyderabad, India. Renowned for its unique triangular shape and crispy texture, this savory pastry is typically filled with a spicy mixture of potatoes, peas, lentils, or minced meat, often seasoned with aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and garam masala. It’s wrapped in thin dough, deep-fried to golden perfection, and served hot. While it offers a flavorful and satisfying experience, Hyderabadi samosas are indulgent due to their high-fat content from deep frying. The filling provides some nutritional benefits, such as fiber from the vegetables or protein from the meat and lentils. However, moderation is key, as it’s high in calories and may contain added oils. Pairing this with a fresh salad or chutney can balance the meal and enhance its nutritional profile while enjoying a quintessential taste of Indian street food culture.
