King Samosas

I used to think making of this king samosas is a big thing and very tedious work. But when I saw this recipe in TV inspired me to do this samosas at home. It was simple and easy. 1 ½ cup of Maida gives us nearly 12 to 13 samosas. We can do it at home and we can make a healthier filling why to get it from outside. It was easy and very tasty too. I made this for ifthar today and I felt really happy when I made it myself.  Have a look and hope u all will surely like it.
