Samoussa,
samosa or sambos, and its competition around the world
: BRIK / EMPADINHA ...
Samosas come from northern India and central Asia,
and are known all the way to Ouzbekistan. These little
pastries have traveled across all the oriental shores
of the Indian ocean, and then across the whole world
with the emigration of Indian workers that started
in the 19th century. The shape of the pastry is triangular,
and wrapped in a thin wheat paste that contains a
meat and vegetable stuffing, with peppers and spices.
As far as taste is concerned, it has been modified
to fit into the local culinary habits.
It is such a sublime
pleasure when you are struck by hunger, to enjoy a
delightful samosas soft on the inside, crispy on the
outside. It will highlight your buffets, and spark
your appetizer plates. As soon as you put it into
your mouth, you will recognize its flavour as an invitation
to travel. Its culinary harmony will create a passionate
desire in you and you'll soon become addicted to samosas.
