Instant Mini Samosa using Samosa Patti

Hello Foodies,
         A tangy, perfectly spiced and yummy potato stuffing inside and crispy, crunchy fried outer

layer samosa, when dipped in meethi(sweet) chutney, is an amazing treat for food lovers! This bite-sized crispy samosa prepared in a short time. I love the thinner and crispy outer layer of this Patti samosa. This recipe is fairly simple, you just need to prepare stuffing and stuff it into store-bought samosa sheets or Patti and fry them. Aren't it easy? Best thing is you can stuff and freeze them and whenever you crave for samosas just defrost them and fry and enjoy with your evening cup of tea.
         I have not used onion and garlic to make this samosa, but if you like the taste of garlic or onion, you can add them while preparing samosa stuffing. Also, you can make this samosa as spicy as you want. You may add coriander seeds, as they use it in authentic Punjabi samosas stuffing. I have added coriander in the form of powder, not the seeds, it gives a nice taste to samosa.
         I have fried this instant version of samosas, but you can bake them! Sometimes baked samosas come out dryer than deep fried, but it lowers calorie intake. I also have shared baked samosa version you can check my baked samosa recipe. These Patti samosas or instant samosas are suitable to serve as an appetizer or finger snack. Those are small and are called as mini samosas or cocktail samosas too. It tastes yummy when served with tamarind and green chutney. Or you can serve these as samosa chat as a samosas chole.

How to Prepare Samosa in

advance and Store?

          Yes! You can prepare samosas in advance and freeze them for up to 2-3 weeks and refrigerate for up to 8-10 hours. Stuff samosas and place them into the Ziploc and place Ziploc bag into the freezer. Take out of the freeze 6-7 hours before frying.

My Take:

You can prepare stuffing of your choice like you can use meat or other veggies instead of potatoes.
Fry Patti samosa on medium to low flame.
