An Indian food in Sydney is so appreciated for its Samosa varieties, that the chefs of this restaurant keep on coming across with the different fillings. Earlier, people used to love the filling made of mashed potatoes and peas, but nowadays, anything and everything can be used as the filling. The master chefs of Indian Restaurant In Warners Bay also presented Samosas filled with noodles and pasta. So, the tiny appetizer has a whole lot of space to get fused with any possible filling.
Why is SAMOSA famous even today despite it being deep-fried?
Nowadays, people are very conscious about their health. They usually avoid fried or junk food. Samosa is no doubt tasty but is deep-fried. But still, you can maintain the health aspect of this by considering consuming the baked version. You can even cook the samosa in the oxy-fryer which uses quintessentially less oil.
