The Samosa: India's Favorite Snack

The samosa is a triangular pastry stuffed with a savory filling and fried until golden and crisp. It traces its roots to the Middle East and Central Asia, and traveled to India centuries ago, where cooks filled it with local spices and vegetables. Today it is sold on nearly every street corner in India and is served at weddings, festivals and tea-time gatherings.

At Masala Memories in Amherst, NY we serve four samosas, all with crisp golden pastry shells and bold fillings. They are priced from just $1.00 each, so they are easy to share.

What Makes a Great Samosa?

  • The shell: thin, flaky and golden, with a crunch you can hear.
  • The filling: well spiced and full of flavor, not bland.
  • The freshness: a samosa is at its best soon after frying, when the shell is hot and crisp.

How to Enjoy Samosas

Eat samosas on their own as a snack, or dip them in sweet tamarind chutney and spicy green chutney. You can also crush them over chickpeas and yogurt to make our Samosa Chaat, one of the best-loved street foods in India. A samosa with a cup of Masala Tea is the classic combination.
