kumari' s kitchen: ONION SAMOSA...

onion samosa's... my favorite from childhood days but sadly had opportunity to have them very rarely (may be only becoz i get them very rarely i love them so much). 4 years back one of my uncle got these onion samosa's from a very famous shop in nellore called "baba samosa's". from then on i kept trying them at home but never got the exact taste and i used to get very disappointed. few months back i saw the recipe of chef sanjay in his personal website and followed that recipe with little changes and the samosa's turned out so well and exactly matched to the taste of "baba samosa's" and from then on i prepare them very frequently at home... hope u like it...<3 <3 <3
