FRIED CHICKEN SAMOSA: The Snack of the Gods!
Ah, samosas! Those delightful little triangles of joy that manage to steal the spotlight at any Indian gathering. But wait! We’re taking it up a notch today with a fiery twist—meet the Fried Chicken Samosa! If you think samosas can’t get any better, prepare to have your taste buds tango!
Why Fried Chicken Samosa?
Well, why not? The only thing better than a crispy, flaky samosa is when it’s stuffed with a heavenly mixture of boiled, masaledar chicken. Think of it as an express ticket to flavor town—populated exclusively by your taste buds!
Ingredients That Will Make Your Heart Sing
-
For the Samosa Pastry:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (because we like it refined, darling)
- 1/4 cup oil (for that flaky texture)
- 1/2 teaspoon carom seeds (or ajwain, if you’re feeling fancy)
- Water, as needed (hydration is important, even for dough)
-
For the Chicken Filling:
- 500 grams boiled chicken (I know, we’re not starting with raw chicken chaos)
- 1 onion, finely chopped (tear-jerking perfection)
- 2-3 green chillies, finely chopped (spice it up or chicken out!)
- 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste (bringing the flavor slam dunk)
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder (for that golden glow)
- 1 teaspoon garam masala (because life’s too short for blandness)
- Salt, to taste (taste test is key!)
- Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (garnishing like a pro)
-
For Frying:
- Oil, enough to deep-fry (we’re going for crunchy greatness).
Instructions: How to Bring This Masterpiece to Life
-
Make the Dough: In a big bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, carom seeds, and salt. Add the oil and rub it in until it resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add water and knead until it’s a soft dough. Cover it and let it rest. Yes, just like you after a long day.
-
Prepare the Filling: In a pan, heat a little oil. Throw in the chopped onions, green chillies, and ginger-garlic paste. Sauté until they’re all friendly and golden. Add the boiled chicken, turmeric, garam masala, and salt. Mix it all up like you’re making the world’s strongest flavor army. Finally, stir in those fresh coriander leaves.
-
Shape the Samosas:
- Divide the dough into small balls (like nature’s little dumplings).
- Roll each ball into a thin oval or circle. Slice it in half—big reveal time!
- Take one half, form a cone, and seal the edge with water. Stuff it with your chicken filling, then seal the open end. Channel your inner origami artist!
-
Fry Time: Heat the oil in a deep pan until hot (not so hot it starts a fire alarm!). Slide in those cute samosas, frying until crispy and golden brown. Resist the urge to snack while they cook—you can’t ruin dinner before it starts!
-
Drain and Serve: Once they are crunchy and gloriously golden, let them sit on some paper towels to soak up excess oil. Now get ready with your favorite chutney, and voila, your Fried Chicken Samosas are ready to make you the star of the show!
Notes for the Brave:
- Chillies: Adjust the number based on your spice tolerance. No shame in the “mild” game, friends.
- Leftover Chicken: Perfect for this! Don’t let anything go to waste—we like to call it “the circle of life.”
- Serving Hack: Pair these beauties with some chai and you’ve just unlocked the ultimate evening snack combo. Your taste buds will be forever grateful!
So, roll up your sleeves, get your frying pan ready, and let’s make some magic in the kitchen! Who knew that snack time could turn into a dance party for your flavor senses? Enjoy!
