How to keep the Samosa crispy for a long time?
Make sure to fry on low medium heat to make a perfect crispy texture. Place on kitchen paper to absorb excess oil. After that keep it on the grill so the air can pass through the samosa. In this way, it will remain crispy for long hours.
How to Serve Finger Samosa?
You can serve it hot! with green chutney or green raita. Don't forget to serve hot tea or coffee along. I also like to have it with ketchup.
How to Store Finger Samosa?
You can make it in bulk and refrigerate it in the fridge for 15 days. When you need it, take it out and microwave it for 1 minute, and deep fry.
