Notes
1.Always deep frying on low flame makes the samosa cook perfectly from inside as well.
2.Frying on high flame keeps the samosa dough raw from inside and it is burnt from outside which is not so good in taste.
3.Here in the stuffing, very finely chopped green chillies, roasted coriander powder too can be added for more flavors.
4.Other stuffings such as keema stuffing, vegetable stuffing too can be made.
