Chicken Samoosas

Making samoosas reminds me of my Gran – I know I say this a lot but it’s true she is my biggest inspiration.

She used to gather everyone together and she’d give us all a task!, Folding, filling, and sealing samoosa duties – back then I used to complain, however now I quite enjoy it and I’ve dragged my kids and husband along for the “fun” 😂.

Here is a family recipe for chicken samoosa filling. I’ll be sharing my special tamarind samoosa dip recipe soon as well – sign up To my blog to receive a notification everytime I post a new recipe ❤
