Samosas have been around since at least the 9th century and originated in Persia and/or the Middle East and were introduced to South Asia by the Turks. (Definition: triangular pastry.)
Our samosas are easy to make and an impressive potluck offering, easy weeknight meal when served with a fresh green salad, or—as they were intended—as a quick snack. We added garbanzo beans to give them a little protein.
Samosas are yummy all on their own, but even yummier when dipped in a chutney like our 5-Minute Cilantro Chutney.
