Aloo Samosa

Samosas need no introduction, crispy outside, and super tasty filling. Enjoy these with your favorite chutneys: green, tamarind, and garlic chutneys.
They are loved by almost every person as they can be fried or baked, the filling can be savory or sweet; hence, to sum they all it can be customized as per one’s taste.
In this post, I will show you how to make basic potato samosa. To make the outer covering of the samosa crispy the dough must be properly made. If there is an excess of shortening in the dough the samosa will be very oily and if it is less, then the covering will be hard and not crisp. The dough, if soft, will also make the samosas oily.

  14. 14

    Similarly, prepare samosa from the other part too.

  15. 15

    Heat oil in a kadai. When the oil is moderately hot slide in the samosa. Let it fry on slow flame. Flip when it turns golden brown in color. Let fry from the other side also.

  16. 16

    Take out on an absorbent paper. Similarly, fry the other samosa. Continue the procedure with the entire dough. The number of samosas to be fried at a time depends upon the quantity of oil taken. (I prefer taking less oil)

  17. 17

    Serve hot with green chutney, tamarind chutney, etc.

  18. 18

    Delicious “Aloo Samosa” is ready!
