Take any food, make it small and it instantly becomes classy. I love samosa but theres no way I am sitting to fold mini samosas. Who has time for that?! Not me. I’m busy trying to keep my 3 year old alive most of the time -if you have a couch jumping-table climbing toddler, you know what I mean.
In my quest to simplify samosa, I managed to come up with a cute Hors d’oeuvre that can be made in a snap.
Drumroll please! Meet, samosa cups, my new go to lazy entertaining snack.
It really doesn’t get any simpler. Make your filling, buy some samosa wrappers, grab a muffin tray, bake, fill, presto! Here’s a handy video I made showcasing these beauties.
