About Vegetable samosas

Vegetable samosas are a popular snack originating from South Asian cuisine, loved for their crispy, golden pastry and flavorful filling. These triangular treats typically feature a seasoned mixture of potatoes, peas, carrots, and onions, spiced with turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili for a vibrant taste. Encased in a thin, flaky dough and deep-fried until crunchy, samosas offer a satisfying combination of textures. While rich in plant-based ingredients and fiber from the veggies, samosas are calorie-dense due to their frying process, which adds saturated fats. For a healthier twist, they can be baked instead of fried to reduce fat content. A versatile dish, samosas are commonly enjoyed as appetizers or snacks and pair well with mint chutney or tamarind sauce. Despite their indulgent nature, vegetable samosas can be a delightful occasional treat rooted in centuries-old culinary tradition.
