About Samoussas de poisson

Samoussas de Poisson, a popular dish rooted in Indian Ocean cuisines, particularly from the islands of Madagascar, Réunion, and Mauritius, offers a flavorful fusion of taste and culture. These triangular pastry pockets are stuffed with a savory mixture of flaked fish, aromatic spices such as turmeric and cumin, fresh herbs like cilantro, and diced vegetables or onions. The filling is wrapped in thin layers of dough, which are typically fried to golden perfection, providing a crispy exterior that complements the soft, spiced interior. Rich in protein from the fish and potentially omega-3 fatty acids depending on the type of fish used, Samoussas de Poisson is a nutrient-packed snack. However, the frying process adds calories and fat, making baked versions a more health-conscious alternative. Often enjoyed as appetizers or street food, these samoussas embody a balance of indulgent flavor and cultural tradition in a compact, irresistible form.
