Samosas are one of my very favourite appetizers. Crispy on the outside, full of flavour on the inside, if you love Indian food, chances are you’re in love with samosas as well.
Recently, we tried a fun little twist on the classic samosa, and turned that delicious filling into little Samosa patties!
Crispy Samosa Patties
Ingredients
3 potatoes, peeled and chopped into small cubes
1 small onion, diced
1 tbsp ginger, grated
1 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp Patak’s Mild Curry Paste
1 cup frozen peas (or peas and carrots work well too)
1/4 Cup oil
Directions
Place diced potatoes in boiling pot of water and cook until tender. Once cooked, strain water and set aside.
Saute onion, garlic and ginger until cooked/onions are translucent. Add curry paste to pan; cook for 2 minutes. Add cooked potatoes and frozen peas to the pan- cover mixture and let cook for 5-10 minutes until peas/carrots are thawed and hot. Let cool slightly so you can manipulate mixture with your hands.
Form the potato mixture into small patties and dredge them in the flour. Heat the oil until sizzling, place a few patties in the pan. Cook until golden brown, about three minutes on each side.
Once they are cooked, place them on the paper towel lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining patties. Serve warm.

Samosa patties????? that is just brilliant!! We really miss the authentic samosas we used to get in the city, this would be so great to try! Fairly simple too, thank you!
very simple! You’ll love it!
that’s an interesting twist
Different! I wonder if this recipe would get my youngest to eat potatoes?!
My oldest son LOVES samosa’s. I have always bought them. I should give this recipe a try.
just add a cold glass of Kingfisher
and you’ve got yourself a meal!
I love love love samosas – awesome idea 🙂
me too! they are so good!
I had samosas once and I thought I was going to die, so spicy, but these ones don’t seem like they are hot since the recipe calls for mild, I might just give these a try!!
you can easily adjust the spice with these, I recommend starting with just 1 tbsp of the curry paste if you are new to curry, it will be very mild and you can work your way up!
We adore samosa’s in our house and these look amazingly tasty! Thanks for the inspiration!
It’s a fun little twist!
Oh what a lovely dish with full of flavor. I am simply loving loving loving ur samosas
I’ve printed this recipe off and will make it next week. I need my Indian food fix!!!
I will have to hubby to make these sometime they sure look tasty,thanks fr the recipe
They are totally delicious.thanks so much !
Wow these looks so flavourful and delicious!
I too luv samosa I will give these ones ago but can I freeze these ones once cooked.???
I honestly haven’t tried it, I imagine you could but I suspect the coating would be quite soggy when thawed.
Can these be made the day before?
You could probably do this but they wouldn’t be crispy the next day after being in the fridge. I bet they still taste great but they would be soft.
Can these be cooked in a air fryer?
I’ve never used an air fryer but it definitely sounds possible. Let me know how it turns out if you try it!
