Keema Samosa

The most popular South Asian street food is the crunchy and crispy Keema Samosa. Once you have made these samosas, you will find it difficult to resist their perfectly shaped, triangle-shaped pastries. This recipe features a delectable minced beef filling that is sure to satisfy your cravings.

What Is Samosa?

Samosas are made from a flaky pastry that has been filled with a simple minced meat filling mixture and deep-fried. They are commonly served as appetizers or snacks and are popular Ramadan Iftar items. In addition to their incredible flavor, samosas are highly versatile and can be enjoyed in many ways. It is usually served with delicious Imli chutney or Mint and coriander chutney.

The recipe is easily adaptable to your specific tastes and preferences, allowing you to put your own spin on this popular Indian snack and create a truly one-of-a-kind version that is truly your own.

What Filling Should I Use?

Ingredients for Keema Samosa
  • Meat: I like to use a 20/80 ratio for beef minced meat, but you can also use mutton, lamb, or chicken minced meat.
  • Chopped onions: chop the onions; you can use any onion of your choice, red, yellow, or white.
  • Cilantro: Chopped cilantro adds a lot of flavor to samosas, so I recommend not skipping it.
  • Green Chillies: They give your samosas a slight kick; if you do not like spice, reduce the amount.

FAQs

How Can I Freeze The Samosas?

The good news is that these samosas freeze well for 3 to 4 months. To freeze, place the samosas on a tray and do not overlap them. This will cause all the samosas to stick and destroy their shapes. Place the samosas in a zip-lock bag or other airtight container once they have hardened. Whenever you are craving these delicious samosas, just deep fry on medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes and serve with Imli Ki Chutney. and Mint And Coriander Chutney.

How Do You Deep Fry A Samosa?

The most important thing is the temperature of the oil. The oil should not be too hot for samosas. A quick tip to check the temperature without a fry thermometer is to drop a small piece of dough or samosa sheet piece in it, If it comes to the top slowly (and not too quickly), the oil is ready. Add the samosa at this stage and they will start to come to the top slowly. Flip them carefully. At this stage, increase the heat to medium. Each batch should take 6 to 8 minutes to fry or until the desired color is achieved.

What Is The Best Way To Airfry Samosa?

Samosas are typically deep-fried. However, they can also be air-fried for a healthier version. Brush or spray the samosa with oil, making sure to coat all sides thoroughly. Air fry for 12–15 minutes, turning halfway through.

How Do You Bake Samaosa?

Samosas can also be baked easily. Simply spray or brush them with oil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown, at 350°F.

  • Cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the water evaporates.
  • Make certain that there is no moisture in the mixture.
  • Close the stove and then add the onion, cilantro, and green chilies. Cooking the vegetables will cause them to release water.

  • Place 2 to 3 teaspoons of filling on a sheet. Fold as shown in the video and seal with flour paste.
  • Cover the sheets that are not in use with a damp cloth or paper towel while making the samosas. This prevents the sheets from hardening.

Notes

  • If you like your samosas extra crunchy, use two sheets per samosa instead of one.
  • The wrappers need to be thawed before use and covered with a damp kitchen towel or paper napkin while working with them. If they become dry, they will crack.
  • To suit your taste, adjust the spices to your liking.
