This generation is divided into two parts half being the pizza gang and half being the Indian samosa gang😂😂I hope you agree,if not you are free to do so😉but if you take on a serious note there still are people who would give away pizza for samosa and with people I mean the younger generation.
And the gang that I am talking about is none other than my twins,they love samosa.The street from where they pass by for classes has a small hotel from where aroma of Deep frying samosas just make you feel hungry and wanting to just have , from that place samosa have become my twins fav,in either way it had to happen as their dad is a hardcore fan of Samosa 😃.
Coming from Uttar Pradesh where all the samosa and chaat stuff started making them was never a big deal and every house had their own way of making masala.The whole trick lies in the masala or stuffing of samosa a little bit here n there with the masala you are gone,so perfect quantity of spices is the main stuff.
This recipe which I am sharing is the one made by all the local shopkeepers from Purvanchal region and main bazar of our native place that’s Pattinarendrapur,any person who has tried samosa from UP will get easily connect to it by have this one.
Now,lets get the recipe
