Mini Onion Samosa
by Tarla Dalal

These scrumptious bite-sized samosas are excitingly stuffed with onions that have been sautéed with masala powders for that really mouthwatering aroma and flavour. Sautéing the onions rids it of the raw smell and imparts a rich aroma instead. The texture also gets more enjoyable.

Mini Onion Samosas together with tomato ketchup or green chutney are ideal for serving at a Cocktail Party , and when enjoyed in the company of close friends and family, you are bound to lose count of how many you had!

I always loved Mini Samosas with different stuffings, but this onion stuffing with a lot of masalas has now been my favourite, they are perfect to serve for Indian parties with a spicy green chutney...
