Notes

Crispy Samosa Recipe Note

Don't add too much water to knead the dough, otherwise, the dough will become soft, it turns out oily while frying not crispy.
If you want to make samosa from whole wheat flour, make sure you follow 1:1 ratio; for 300 grams flour, you can use 150 grams maida and 150 grams whole wheat flour or atta.
To get perfect crispy samosa crust it will be best if you only use maida for samsoa sheets.
