Punjabi Samosa is a popular snack from the northern region of India, known for its rich flavors and hearty filling. This triangular pastry is made from a crisp, flaky dough filled with a spiced mixture of mashed potatoes, peas, and aromatic seasonings such as cumin, coriander, and garam masala. Often deep-fried to golden perfection, the samosa boasts a satisfying crunch that complements its warm, savory filling. While traditionally a street food indulgence, the Punjabi Samosa can be baked for a lighter alternative. It offers a good source of complex carbohydrates from potatoes and dietary fiber from the peas, but its deep-fried preparation makes it relatively high in calories and unhealthy fats. Eaten in moderation, Punjabi Samosas are a flavorful treat that represents the rich culinary heritage of Indian cuisine. Pairing it with fresh chutneys can enhance its nutrient profile and brighten its flavors.
