Jalapeño samoosas are a spicy and delicious variation of traditional samoosas, a popular snack in South Asian cuisine. Instead of the usual potato or meat filling, these samoosas are filled with a mixture of diced jalapeños, onions, and spices, giving them a spicy kick.
To make jalapeño samoosas, the filling is prepared by sautéing diced jalapeños and onions in oil until they are soft and fragrant. Then, a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, and garam masala are added, along with salt to taste. The mixture is then allowed to cool.
Next, the filling is placed inside triangular-shaped pieces of pastry dough, which are then folded and sealed to create the samoosas. The samoosas are then deep-fried until they are crispy and golden brown.
Jalapeño samoosas can be served as a snack, appetizer, or part of a larger meal. They are often accompanied by a variety of chutneys, such as mint or tamarind, to balance out the spiciness. They are a perfect snack for those who enjoy a little heat in their food.
