Recipe- Deep Fried And Crispy Pinwheel Samosa
By: Priyanka Maheshwari Tue, 02 Jan 2024 11:20:35
Let me introduce you to these amazing pinwheel samosas! They're like a fun spin on the regular samosa recipe. Imagine this: tasty spiced potatoes wrapped in a flour dough, rolled, cut into little pinwheels, and fried until they're crispy and bursting with flavor - that's the magic of pinwheels!
Now, I have a little confession to make - I'm a huge samosa fan! Yep, I just can't resist those crispy, spicy bites filled with delicious potato mix, especially when I pair them with that tangy coriander-tamarind chutney. It's my weakness, even if it's not the healthiest snack choice!"

For Pinwheel Samosa
- In a kadhai / pan heat 2 tablespoon oil, add ginger-green chilli paste and sauté for a minute till the raw smell fades away.
- Now add the potato mixture that we made along with all the spices. Mix well and cook this mixture for about 5 minutes on high flame so that spices nicely gets incorporated with potatoes.
- Take this mixture off the heat and keep it aside to cool down to room temperature.
- On a rolling board, knead the maida dough that we prepared just to loosen it out.
- Divide this dough into equal parts. Take one part of the dough and roll into a roti like we do for chapati.
- Place the potato stuffing on this rolled maida roti and spread it evenly. Leave 1 inch space at the edges.
- Now roll the maida roti tightly.
