Fry the samosa ⏱ 3 min 30 sec
Put the Vegetarian Samosa straight from the freezer into oil at 160°C, in small batches, until golden and piping hot.
-
Drain without steam
Transfer the samosa to a rack and let the excess oil drain off. Don't cover or stack them while they're hot.
-
Build the chaat
Arrange the samosa on a platter and lightly crush a few of them. Layer on the chickpeas, yogurt, chutneys, onion and tomato, without drowning the crust.
-
Finish and serve
Scatter over chaat masala, coriander and sev. Serve immediately, while there's a contrast between the crisp shell and the cold toppings.
