Indian Punjabi Aloo Pea Samosa is a popular snack originating from North Indian cuisine, celebrated for its bold flavors and hearty filling. This triangular pastry is made by filling a thin, flaky wheat-based wrapper with a spiced mixture of boiled potatoes (aloo), green peas, and aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and garam masala. The samosa is typically deep-fried to golden perfection, offering a crispy texture paired with a savory, mildly spicy filling. While samosas are rich in flavor, they are calorie-dense due to the frying process and the carbohydrate-heavy filling. The peas provide a source of vitamins and fiber, and spices like turmeric and cumin offer antioxidant properties. To make this snack healthier, some opt for baking instead of frying or pairing it with a fresh vegetable side dish. Enjoyed globally, it's a beloved treat that reflects the vibrant flavors of Indian cuisine.
