Samosa is the most popular Indian street food that is loved by everyone. Not only in India but it is popular almost all over the world. Every region has it's way of shapes like triangular, cone, half moon etc. and stuffing of this flaky crispy pastry which is either baked or fried.
The Indian style samosa is made with all purpose flour stuffed generally with mashed potatoes, peas, spices, sometimes with dry fruits and lentils when it can be kept for a month as dry snack. It is accompanied by chutneys (Imli & Green coriander).

I think Samosa doesn't need more explanation, most of our parties, get together are incomplete without this yummy and chatpata savoury snack.
The perfect samosa need correct amount of oil in it while kneading the dough to make it khasta/crispy and also the most important is the chutney. As a Samosa without chutney is like cold coffee without ice.. Hahaha..
