I'm not a big fan of samosas, but these were actually really good. The pastry was flaky and the filling was flavorful.

The filling was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

The samosas were a bit oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I added some chopped green chilies to the filling for a bit of spice. It was a great addition.

I used a store-bought samosa dough to save time, and it worked out great. The samosas were still delicious.

The cilantro yogurt dip was the perfect complement to the samosas. It was refreshing and tangy.
