Samoosa, also spelled "samosa," is a popular triangular-shaped pastry widely enjoyed in Indian cuisine and South Asian communities. Typically, it consists of a crispy, deep-fried or baked dough shell filled with a savory mixture of spiced potatoes, peas, lentils, or minced meat, such as chicken, beef, or lamb. Packed with flavorful spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander, samoosas offer a taste of vibrant culinary traditions. While the fillings often contain nutritious ingredients like vegetables and legumes, their high fat content and caloric density, due to frying, may be worth moderating in the diet. Baking provides a healthier alternative to frying for those seeking to reduce fat intake. Samoosas are versatile, served as snacks, appetizers, or accompaniments to meals, making them a beloved treat adaptable to various dietary preferences.
