Street food enjoys a huge fandom across the world. But, perhaps, nothing beats the love it enjoys in India. Maybe due to the array of street foods one can find in every nook and corner of the country. Samosa is one of the most popular snacks in India with a new version found everywhere, from college canteens to niche cafes, with the only difference being in the stuffing and the price! And well, we are all for inventive stuffing, aren't we?
The crispy, deep-fried goodness of samosa not only treats our taste buds during evening chai but also during mid-day food breaks at work or college. And while we love noshing on those greasy, fresh-from-the-wok samosas on the street, its reputation when it comes to safety and hygiene never cease to strike our mind. In that case, fresh and homemade samosas might be the best pick. And no, you don't need to settle for the quintessential aloo samosa, you can experiment and try variations even at home.
Irani samosa is a type of samosa that takes the traditional one a notch higher and brings with itself a host of spices, veggies and even poha neatly stuffed inside. Sound interesting, doesn't it? And no, it isn't a tough feat to achieve it at home.
