  4. I always have problems separating the two sheets after cooking.they don’t come apart. What am i doing wrong?

    1. Hi Zarah
      apply oil and dust more maida flour between the sheets sheets while preparing them and make sure that you cook them well enough so that you’ll be able to separate them 🙂 If not cooked just right , then they are difficult to separate 🙂

  5. Very nice, I’m not a Goan but married to one so I would love to see all the authentic Goan dishes. I tried potato bhaji and parallel bhaji…husband liked it :D. Thanks!!!!

  10. Are you sure it’s not 2tbsp of oil because mine just wasn’t coming together!!!

    1. Hi poppy
      It’s 1 tbsp oil for the dough .
      And use water for the dough to come together

  11. Would I apply a little oil on the skillet in order to prevent the samosa dough sheet from sticking to it?
    I am a Nigerian and I love samosa’s. I heard That Indians make the best samosa’s. Would surely try your samosa recipe.

    1. Hi sarah
      Usually the dough sheet should not stick the pan …
      If you need to , you can apply very little oil

  12. This is the same way ,the same method and in fact the same ingredients too except for the oil they use sesame oil you have used normal vegetable oil .Chinese pancakes for Peaking Duck. .Yes the sheets really taste great when fried.

    1. Hi hanan,
      Oh sesame oil used to prepare the sheets ? Good to know .

  13. Hi Xanti,

    How do I stick the open side of pastry after the filling, to seal the samosas. Since the pasty is cooked, it will be hard to seal the sides with a dash of water.

    Thank you.

    1. Hi Juliet
      Please check my recipe on Samosa sheets on my website

  14. Hi Xanti.
    Thank you for sharing. I will try it out. Looks simple.

    1. Hi Anita

  15. Hi can you use any other flour like cake flour or bread flour instead of all purpose flour?

    1. Hi Noah
      I have not tried with other flours

  16. Dear beautiful lady, last night I followed this recipe to the dot and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it! After many failed YouTube recipe-based attempts, last night’s success was a breath of fresh air. Thank you for making it happen! ❤

  17. If we want make Samosa’s next day do I need to freeze them or normal fride is enough

    1. Freeze them

  18. Can I half fry Samosa’s and after few hours again can I fry golden, so that I can serve hot for guest, when I am making I large quantities

    1. Hi asha
      I have not tried doing that .. so cannot guide you on that … probably you can try a few before you actually do it for the guests and see how they turn our

  19. Hi, can these samosas be baked and not fried?

    1. They turn out the best when deep fried

  20. Am glad I came across your site…I tried on two occasion but still keeps sticking together..where have I missed it? Do I allow it cool off before trying to separate the dough or what exactly..because it keeps tearing apart and this breaks my heart

    1. Hi
      Probably , try dusting more flour in between the layers …

  21. The samosas when hot are crispy and after few minutes the crispiness is gone… What should I do to maintain the crispiness??

    1. Hi as mentioned in recipe
      Deep Fry on low flame for longer time …
