About Vegan samoussa

Vegan Samoussa is a plant-based twist on the traditional Indian and East African snack. Encased in crispy, golden-brown pastry, this flavorful treat is often filled with a savory mixture of mildly spiced vegetables like peas, potatoes, and carrots, sometimes combined with lentils or chickpeas for added protein. Its rich blend of spices, including cumin, coriander, and turmeric, not only provides depth of flavor but also offers potential anti-inflammatory benefits. Vegan Samoussa is typically baked or fried, and baking offers a healthier, oil-free alternative to frying, reducing overall fat content. This snack is high in fiber from the vegetables and legumes, supporting digestion, and contains essential vitamins and minerals. However, fried versions may be higher in calories, so moderation is key. Perfect as a snack or appetizer, Vegan Samoussa delivers a balance of nutrition and irresistible flavor, making it a healthy indulgence when prepared mindfully.
