Keema Samosa

Samosas are a common Indian delicacy that can be found on every street corner. This simple samosa recipe shows you how to make a samosa filled with a fragrant chicken keema samosa filling. These golden and crispy chicken samosas are the ultimate delicious snack and the perfect showstopping appetizer.

Serve chicken samosa with a full Indian meal or even pack them into your lunchbox for a quick lunch treat. Make the perfect triangular-shaped flaky pastry samosa in the comforts of your own home.

Samosas are THE PERFECT make-ahead starters because I can just freeze them. Then when I need them, I simply fry them, and voila I am done! That is why they are so popular during Ramadan. People mass-prepare them in the prior months to allow them to make them quickly for iftar.

You could also use make your own homemade dough instead of using the pastry sheets as I do in my aloo samosas. I know some people prefer samosas with store-bought pastries and some prefer it with homemade dough. However, you choose to make these keema samosas I can guarantee that you will love them.

Everyone has a different technique for folding their samosas using spring roll pastry sheets. Check out my video to see how I fold my sheets to create triangle samosas. You could even use this filling to make spring rolls as I do in the chicken spring rolls recipe.
