Samosa, Aloo Samosa, Street Food

Samosa is probably the most popular Indian snack. Fried puffed pastry filled with spicy potatoes and green peas. No one can resist samosas, a mouthwatering snack. Samosas can be served any time and for any occasion. This recipe is for traditional north Indian Samosa.

Samosa

Ingredients

Dough

  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour plain flour, maida
  • 1/2 tbsp sooji samolina
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1-1/2 tbsp oil canola or vegetable
  • 3 tbsp lukewarm water use as needed

For the Filling:

  • 3 boiled potatoes, peeled and chopped into very small cubes
  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds jeera
  • 1 tbsp chopped green chilies
  • 1 tsp coriander powder dhania
  • 1/4 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp mangopowder amchoor
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp oil canola or vegetable
  • 1/2 cup green peas I am using frozen peas

Need oil to fry

Instructions

Making the Dough:

  • Mix the flour, sooji, salt, oil and salt together to make a soft dough (add more water as needed). knead the dough for about 1 to 2 minutes to make the dough smooth and pliable. Set the dough aside and cover it with damp cloth. Let the dough sit for at least 15 minutes.

Making the Filling:

  • Heat the oil in a frying pan on medium high heat. Test the heat by adding one cumin seed to the oil; if it cracks right away oil is ready. Add cumin seeds as cumin seeds crack, add green chilies, coriander powder and stir for few seconds. Next add green peas and turn heat to medium and stir until tender. Add the potatoes and stir-fry for about 4 minutes. Stir in garam masala and amchur. Add more salt or amchur according to taste.
  • Let the filling cool to room temperature.

Making Samosa:

  • Take 2 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour to make a paste and keep aside.
  • Knead the dough for a minute. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and make into balls. Roll each ball into 6-inch diameter circles and cut each circle in half.
  • Spread the paste lightly all along the edge of one semicircle. Pick this semicircle up with both hands and fold it into a cone shape. Pinch the side of this cone so that it is completely sealed.
  • Fill the cone with 3 tablespoons of filling. Press this filling down with your fingers. Now close the top of this cone into a triangle shape, pinching the top edge so that it is completely sealed. Continue filling the rest of the samosas.
  • Heat about 1 inch of the oil in a frying pan on medium heat. To check if oil is hot enough place a small piece of dough in oil and dough should sizzle and come to the surface slowly.
  • Place the samosas in the frying pan a few at a time. After samosas are floating on top of the oil turn them slowly. Fry the samosas until the samosas turn a light golden-brown color on all sides. If you use a high heat, the samosa crust will be too soft and not crispy.

Notes

Tips:
Boil the potatoes just until tender. Be careful not to poke the potatoes multiple times while they are cooking, as they will absorb the water. Drain immediately and keep aside until cool enough to touch.
The dough has to be kneaded well; otherwise, the samosas will not come out as crisp.
If the filled samosas sit for too long, they will dry. To avoid this, cover with a damp cloth.
Suggestions:
Samosa can be prepared ahead of time and can be freeze for a month.
Before freezing fry them enough until samosa changes the color to very light gold brown.
After samosas are on room temperature bag them in zip lock bags and freeze them.
To use frozen samosas take out as many you need and fry them on medium heat.

    Hello ma’am. Thanks for the recipe. It looks perfect. I tried it but my maida dough turned too elastic and I wasn’t able to roll it. It was retracting to a smaller size every time I tried to make the disc bigger. Could you please tell me what must I have done wrong? I used all purpose flour from Walmart.

    Hi Manjula,

    We love watching your videos!

    For the record, I’ve made this recipe twice and it turned out very tasty. However, after watching the video, I’m noticing some discrepancies. Can you please clarify the ingredient list for this recipe? It’s not corresponding with the video.

    For example, you mention red chili powder in the video, but it’s not listed in the ingredients of the actual recipe.
    In the video you say “1/2 tsp garam masala” but it’s listed as 1/4 tsp in the recipe.
    Also, in the video it looks like garam masala is added earlier, but in the recipe it’s added last with the amchur powder.

    Finally, do you think adding ginger and garlic would be good in this recipe? I noticed a lot of samosa recipes using it, but this recipe doesn’t.

    Thank you!

    I was blessed to have an Indian family live next door to me in Calgary and whenever there was an occasion of any celebration Gheeta always made a little plate for me and had her daughter Priya bring it over to me. I must admit I WAS SPOILED by all that Gheeta blessed me with and have been to many Indian restaurants that could not compare to her Samosa with peas and potatoes!!! I am looking forward to trying these to see how close the taste is.. I MUST say I THOROUGHLY enjoyed your video and have definitely put it on my favourite pages as I believe the blending of cultures to achieve some kind of PEACE among us starts at the BASIC of all elements of all peoples and that is food! We all eat and we all love to eat! I believe in my heart that we should embrace all ethnicities as we embrace our food and that is with eyes , mind and heart wide open!!!!!
    I cannot wait to try more and see more of your videos

    Awesome tutorial! When we make fresh samosa and keep in the freezer unfried for a few days, it can no longer hold itself but breaks badly. This doesn’t happen if we fry immediately. What can we need to do to make the fresh pastry firm when we want to fry it few days later?

    September 11, 2012 at 12:02 pm

    Hi Manjula,
    I need to prepare few samosas (around 30-35) for a party. As you’ve mentioned i would prepare it a day or two before and refrigerate it. Later on the day of the party, can I remove the samosa 2 hrs in advance and put it in the oven? Will it retain its crispiness? I am just trying to avoid the last minute re-frying during party hours.

    Please let me know if there are any other options too..

    Thanks…

    I’ve made samosas in advance for an upcoming big dinner and I’ve frozen them.
    Is it also possible to serve them without re-frying them but just letting them cook in the oven at medium-high temperature or will they come out too soft/soggy?

    Great recipe. I doubled the amount of salt for the filling and doubled the dough recipe as there was too much filling. Next time I will triple the dough recipe and wait until the filling is completely cooled. The warm filling caused the samosas to lose it’s triangular shape.

    I tried this recipe for my first-ever homemade samosas last night. The turnout was eventually successful although I must say you WILL need at least twice the amount of dough called for – and then some. I still have extra filling left over in my refrigerator, and I ended up making 3 times the amount of dough because some extra friends came over for dinner. Nonetheless, they were quite tasty! I made a nice mango chutney to go along with them. Make sure you are generous with the flour too – if the dough is too sticky, the filling will pop out and they will look like stuffed fritters.

    Is semolina flour and sooji are the same thing. I went to the local Indian grocery store and found both semolina and sooji. The store owner said they are different things. Can you please clarify?
    Thanks – I like your recipes.

    Hi Manjula,
    Thank you very much for the videos and patience.

    I have a question about the amount of dough – Making it from the directions above it almost seems like I have half of the amount. If I do try to make 8 samosas out of it, it is very very thin and very hard to fill. In your video is seems thicker when pressed. I ended up filling 4. Am I doing something wrong ?

    The adding of semolina flour to the dough is perfect. However, I am having a little hard time with the rolling into circles, any tips? From the video you make it so easy to do and it seems that the dough looks a bit oily/smooth?

    Fantastic recipe for samosas. Glad they can be frozen.
    You mentioned to take out of the freezer – do they have to stand or defrost before frying them again?? And how long will they then be fresh for.
    I want to cook some for a friends wedding and mine is a couple of weeks later so want to do all the messy stuff and cooking in one go.
    Many thanks

    Love how simple and easy you demonstrate. Recipe is just a wee bit spicy for this one but great. I have a problem with the dough, though. I tried twice now and it is always too gooey. One I cannot roll in a perfect circle but that’s ok I can cut the right shape. However, when I put in my hand to make the cone it is too stretchy, will not stay flat. Am I using to much/little of something? Thanks!

    Greetings Manjula!
    I have never tried Samosa’s before, they look good, but I’m not so sure about the whole potatoes and peas combination; and I was thinking they would probably be awesome made with an eggplant (aubergine) filling (seasoned with Garam Masala and garlic), I’m not a big fan of chilies so I wouldn’t add them but you probably would.
    Anyways, cool site, makes me feel like my own mom was cooking for me. And if you do take my suggestion, let me know how them come out, I’ll try it one of these days, when I’m in the cooking mood.
    Bye!

    Hello auntie-jee,

    I love your recipes. Although all these are mouth-watering dishes, I cannot try these since my husband is on low-cholesterol diet like most of the people these days. It would be wonderful if you have less fatty (baked/roasted instead of fried), less calories (non-dairy or lowfat) versions of these recipes.

    thanks!

      elizabeth
      February 20, 2010 at 7:51 am

      There is no cholesterol in this recipe. Cholesterol is found only in animal products (e.g. meat, dairy, eggs, etc.), and this recipe has none. If you want a lower-fat version, you can probably make the recipe as-is, but just bake the samosas at 350 degrees instead of frying them.

    I am going to try this recipe as soon as I purchase a pressure cooker tomorrow. I think more vitamins will probably remain in the food and it would definately be faster cooking in a pressure cooker.

    Do you have a cookbook? You would sell alot if you did, I would buy one. Do you have a DVD of your video’s out for sell? I would buy one of them also. You are a very good teacher, pleasant, calm and clear with your instructions.

    So, I have been researching the internet for recipes and found the Samosa. I tried this recipe yesterday and it came out GREAT!!!

    I have just printed more recipes and will be trying them out.

    I was telling my husband about your website and the thing that I LOVE about your site is that you show the reader how to prepare the recipes with a video. In this case — I got to ACTUALLY see how to make the cones. It HELPED tremendously!!!!

    arrives and should they be stored in room temperature or in the fridger?

    Hello Manjula,
    I’am a Sri Lankan. You, in your video makes it look so simple. We definitely will prepare Samosa very soon.
    I like your website because you keeps the instructions clear and simple AND you always mention the English word for the ingredients and spices. Thank You

    Hello again Manjula aunty,
    My dough gets so sticky I mean when I start putting the potato mixture it sticks together. why does this happen?

      Jaya
      July 30, 2009 at 8:44 pm

      Too sticky often means too much water is in the dough. Add it slowly and you many find you do not need as much as shown in the recipe.

      It can also mean the dough has been over kneaded. After you have finished kneading it, cover it and let it rest for about 30 minutes. Then return to making the recipe.

    Hello Manjula

    I was trying to be adventurous and decided to double your recipe. When I tried to double the amount of water it was a watery mess. What about the oil do I double that? I tried making it with double the oil but the 1/4 cup water and the dough seems to have formed well. I have not yet fried it but just wanted to know if I would get the bubbles because of uneven amount of fat and water ratio. Please help

    or books. i am going to try your recipe tomorrow. i really liked your method of making samosas.
    thank you very much for sharing your recipe with everyone. it would be nice add a recipe for making
    small samosas(onion and mint filling), which is very crispy and available mostly in irani hotel
    in india. my son loves it a lot. i dont know how to make it. so i just want to know the recipe for it. once again, thank
    you very much. i am tempted to see the video of all other recipes. i atleast would satisfy myself by
    seeing all your mouth watering recipes.

    I tried your recipe, but no matter how I tried I couldn’t roll the dough out to more than 3 to 4 inches. The samosas were crispy and tasty, but small and I had a lot of filling left over, So today I tried using flour tortillas in place of the traditional dough, and got very good results! Also, next time I think I will use baked and mashed potatoes instead of boiled and chopped; much faster as I won’t have to wait for the potatoes to cool.

This tasted (and looked), like the Samosas I’ve eaten in restaurants. Your videos really helped me understand, seeing the dough spring back to your touch etc. Thanks so much it’s my first real success making Indian food and I am heartened to try more!

    February 23, 2009 at 10:32 am

    I could not find any sooji so I tried it without, and I was not able to roll the dough. It was too sticky. Is the sooji what makes it not stick? All the other measurements I followed exactly.

    The filling was delicious!! I had some eggroll paper so I used those and it still was good, but I want to make the dough next time.

      Hello Roshi,
      Can be few reason, but you are saying samosas were chewy I am sure dough was not right, make sure knead the dough enough and cover it with demp cloth if kitchen is very cold make the dough with using warm water and damp the cloth also with warm water.

I just want to know that for how may days I can keep the samosas fresh? like 3-4 days. Should I keep them in fridge or what should I do so that it remain fresh.

      Manjula Jain
      January 2, 2009 at 2:48 pm

      The best way to keep samosas fresh and krisp to freeze and deep fry when you are ready to serve. Way to freeze the samosa is to half fry before freezing. Only fry them until samosa’s shell becomes lightly gold. Wait until samosas are at room temperature, and then bag them in zip lock bags. When you are ready to eat, fry on medium heat. Samosas will stay good for 2 to 3 months.

    Hello Manjula,

    A rolling pizza cutter works really well for cutting dough like this without pulling the dough over on itself as a knife does.

    Thanks for the recipe!

    Jaya
    December 8, 2008 at 4:06 pm

    Dough is easy to make. Like any new skill, it might not come out right the first time. Dough is finding the right combo of water to flour and then working it into a firm (not hard) but smooth mass.

    It takes a minute for the flour to absorb the water, so don’t rush to add all of the water at once. Add most of it, knead for a minute, add a little more, knead for a minute and you will start to figure out if any more water is needed.

    You can knead dough in a food processor although I still do mine by hand. You just have it in a large enough bowl so it can be rolled around OR you can knead it on a clean countertop. 🙂

    You may have to check on-line. If there is an Indian restaurant in your area ask if they will give you some if it’s not possible to buy it.

    Finally, you can also use lemon juice in place of amchoor. The purpose of amchoor is to give a very slight tartness and lemon juice does the same. In this recipe use 1/2 to 1 tsp. lemon juice.

    hi,

    i have added some notes on samosa making below – this is in addition to those notes..

    if you are looking for a market quality samosa crust, i have been making this since quite a few years & its no fail, easy to roll, giving perfect market style samosas everytime..

    FOR THE SAMOSA CRUST DOUGH:

    3 cups All-purpose flour (maida)
    3 tablespoons Semolina (rava)
    5 tablespoons melted, warm Dalda Ghee
    1 tsp whole jeera or ground jeera powder (whichever you prefer)
    1 tsp ajwain (ajmo)
    salt to taste

    Sieve All-purpose flour (maida) & Semolina (rava) together. Add warm Dalda Ghee, jeera, ajwain & salt, prepare a puri-consistency dough. cover & let the dough rest for 30 mins.

    A tip to making bigger fuller samosas is to roll the dough in a long oval shape & then cut in 2 parts..once again roll the piece that you are going to fill, stretch it to the left, right & center to make a bigger semi-circle. this will give more room for the filling than the round shape & the oval shape when folded will give a more triangular shape & bigger base to the samosa.

    Also for beginners, if you fear that the samosa might break off in hot oil & make a mess, prepare a thick creamy paste by mixing 2-3 spoons of regular wheat flour with little water (add water spoon by spoon to the wheat flour to ensure that it does not becomes too thin)

    when you roll a piece of dough & cut it in 2 parts, seal all the edges from the inside (the center edge where the 2 folds meet & the bottom base) with this thick wheat paste.

    by the time, you roll & fill all the samosas, this paste will dry out inside the edges & its completely edible..just adds piece of mind that all the hours of effort will not go waste when the samosa finally lands in the oil.

    This dough mixture proportion is just perfect..does not soak any oil while frying, gives a crisp yet soft to chew crust..when you fry them twice (as mentioned below in one of my notes) it gives the perfect golden brown crust that we all look for when we make samosas.

    experimenting with samosa fillings is fun..try the traditional potato & peas filling, mixed vegetable filling, all green beans filling with a dash of garlic..samosas will taste different each time.

    trust this helps you all.

    November 22, 2008 at 7:43 am

    hi all you samosa lovers,

    i hv been making samosas since quite a few years now…& for those who like a little more crispy crust, here is an easy trick..

    when you fry samosas for the first time, just fry them till they hv little pink spots, just about 2-3 mins & remove them from the oil..let them rest as is for about 10 mins..or till you finish frying the entire batch for the first time..

    immediately or while serving them, do a second frying session & fry them just as stated in this recipe..fry till completely golden brown & cooked.

    having samosas with different chutneys is fun..& for the ardent food lovers, here’s another interesting version..SAMOSA BHEL..this will need little more effort but its super yummm for chaat lovers..my husband just loves this version..

    SAMOSA BHEL – just crush the fried samosa little bit, add lightly whipped fresh yogurt (dahi) over the crushed samosas (like we prepare dahi vada serving), add chopped onions, tomatoes, green (dhania) chutney, tamarind sweet & sour chutney, little salt, red chilli powder, crisp sev, fresh cilantro & enjoy like any other chaat recipe..

    trust this helps you all..

    Heloo Tam,
    It is a good idea to freeze samosas; The trick is to half fry the samosas before freezing or refrigerate them. Only fry them until samosa’s shell becomes lightly gold. Wait until samosas are at room temperature, and then bag them in zip lock bags. When you are ready to eat, fry on medium heat. Samosas will stay good for 2 to 3 months if samosa are freezed. if you refrigerat the samosa without frying they will crack and stick to each other.

    Hi Manjula,
    I was very thrilled to find this website and the various recipes that you have posted on it. I was especially fond of the samosas and wanted to try them and I did today. The filling recipes went fine, it turned out alright. However, the dough was the problem. i followed the recipe but the dough came out sticky and I wasn’t able to use the rolling pin to roll it out. I still made them but they didn’t turn out the way that I was expecting and the way they look on your videos. Could you please help me a bit and give any tips so the dough doesn’t stick. I didn’t use sooji, because I didn’t have any at the moment. But I read here and gathered that it was optional. thanks

    Helo Ritu,
    If dough is too soft or not knead enough, samosa will not be very crispy.
    In dough replace the oil to butter or vegetable shortening that helps giving the crispness.

    Absolutely fantastic! I’m an amateur cook and i didn’t even screw this up too bad!

    1) My dough came out a little to strethy/moist. Now that I think about this this may have been because of too much water from the damp cloth while they sat there for like an hour while i was burning the filling. But also I didn’t have sooji.

    2) Next time roll out the circles, I will one by one get 2 semi circles from a circle, fill them and close them one by one. They got progressively drier as the bottom semi-circles on the stack sat there waiting for me to ham-fist it through the closing process.

    3) We baked them instead of frying them. Just a layer of oil on them top of them, on a baking sheet in the oven for like 30 minutes (?) at 400 degrees (?) until they felt crispy and not soft. They came out wonderfly!

    I scored big points with the girlfriend on this one.

    June 4, 2008 at 2:12 pm

    Hello Yasmin, Thank you, Samosa do get little soft after they are cold but they should not be sogy, make sure filling is not sogy, and never cover while they are still warm moister will make samosas soft.

    Hello Aunty,
    This site is amazing, I love it! Thank you for all of your hardwork. I have tried your Samosa recipe twice and I love it, it is just fantastic. One question, I try to eat them right away but I usually have some left over. The next day, the samosas get soft. Am I doing something wrong? Once again, thank you so much for this site! Soon I will try the Chapati and Aloo Paratha recipes. I can’t wait, I am sure Daddy will love it! Thank you!

    Yes you can freeze them and fry later. Dough should be little more softer and knead little more

    Hi! Thanks for your recipe. I tried it and came out pretty good. I had two questions for you. First when I roll out the doug, it keeps contracting and I end up with small samosa. Any ways to stop this. And second, can i fry them little and freeze them to be used later? Thanks.

    March 25, 2008 at 10:36 pm

    just make them without sooji. Soojo is optional.
