One of my favourite childhood recipes are mini moong dal samosas.I got fascinated with these samosas as they are small in size and a very peculiar shape.Sometimes my mother made aeroplane shaped samosas for me.I learnt from my mother how to give this shape.So I recreated this recipe.#mychildhoodrecipe
