Mini Samosa or Bite-size samosa is a perfect starter, the best thing is you can make these mini samosas with ready made samosa wrappers.
It is so small and teeny weeny, and its cute and pretty looking...its something like what cupcakes are to cakes....you just do not have to share it!!....this tiny little samosa is all yours! kids will love it as a starter for birthday parties....and I am sure adults would no keep their hands away from them too...because it is bite size, they are so very crunchy and crisp!
I love to make samosa from scratch and one of my favorite is kerala beef samosa and if you are calorie conscious, then you should try my baked vegetable samosa.
But this one is a bit different as it is Mini or Bitesize; its my aunt, Shoney who taught me this method of making mini samosa with ready-made samosa wrappers. Here, I just filled it with some beef keema though you can use any filling of your choice.
Before posting this, I did a google search to see if anybody has shared this method of making mini samosa and I did not find not even a single image or post. Hence I am very happy to share this with you, it will definitely make you a star at the next party you host.

Ingredients:
Ready made samosa wrappers
Any filling of your choice.
Flour (Maida) paste: With 1 tbsp flour and little water, mix and make a paste.
Oil for frying.
Method:
Get your samosa wrappers ready. If it is frozen bring it to room temperature. You can use any brand, this is the only brand available here in Calicut, so I used them.
Take out a few sheets and stack them together, and cut them into half with scissors.
Again, cut them into half ..lengthwise. From one single sheet you will get 4 mini samosas :)
Take one cut sheet and wrap into a cone and spoon half a tsp of any filling of your choice, and stick the end with flour paste. When I am making this, I always include my kids.....perfect way to bond with them :)
Deep fry in hot oil and these are so crisp and crunchy...so tiny and yum!!
Enjoy :)

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteIt looks terrific!
I'm just wondering about what size the dough is, when you have cut into the right size?
I am planning to make a bunch, at it would be nice getting home with the right size dough :D

Size of the readymade wrappers are 24x7.5 cm....hope this helps...thanks for stopping by :)
DeleteOh, and is it better to buy the dough for mini samosas?
ReplyDeleteAnd wouldn't it taste even better, if I made the dough myself?
Thanks!

Hi there, it would really be better to make the dough from scratch.....but sometimes there is no harm in shortcuts :) I also have samosa's made from scratch...baked ones and fried ones..you can search for them on the search bar...hope this helps!
