Fry on medium-low heat until golden brown, flipping occasionally for even color. This usually takes about 5 to 7 minutes per batch.
Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Baking Method
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Arrange the samosas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush or spray lightly with oil on all sides.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway, until they are golden and crisp.
Air Frying Method
Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lightly brush or spray the samosas with oil.
Air fry for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping once midway through, until crisp and golden.
Serving Suggestions
Serve hot with green chutney made from mint and coriander.
Pair with tamarind-date chutney for a sweet and tangy contrast.
For a fusion twist, serve with hummus, garlic dip, or even salsa.
Use them in a street-style samosa chaat: break open a samosa and top with yogurt, chutneys, onions, and sev.
Tips for Success
The dough should be stiff and well-rested. This prevents the crust from becoming chewy.
Always seal the samosas properly. A paste made from flour and water can be more secure than plain water.
Fry over medium-low heat. High heat can cause bubbles or blisters on the crust and result in an undercooked interior.
If your samosas are browning too quickly, lower the heat. Patience leads to perfection.
