Samosa irresistible indian snack

Samosa is a luscious mouthwatering dish. If spicy
it may turn your eyes watery but instead of
stopping to eat, I bet, you will relish every bit
of it. Mostly, we eat this dish outside on street
and rarely prepare it at home believing that such
a yummy food can only be made by experts. A false
notion that stopped me for years from making this
dish my-self and probably you also feel the same.
