What Is Samosa Dough Made Of?

The traditional Indian samosa dough is made by binding refined flour (maida), vegetable oil, water and salt together. The small dough balls are then rolled out into thin round sheets and are further cut into 2 halves. The sheet is then used to wrap the potato filling. However, a lot of people find maida unhealthy and use wheat flour as a substitute for it. In this recipe, we are using readymade rotis to make delicious samosa.

  • Ensure the oil is hot because frying them in hot oil will make them crispy.
  • The longer you fry them, the crispier they will become. Don't fry them for too long on high flame.
  • Remove the excess oil. Keep the fried samosas on a kitchen paper and let the excess oil drain.
  • Fry samosa one by one or maximum two at a time. Over filling the wok with samosas will reduce the temperature of the oil.
