Notes
Prepare samosa masala ahead and refrigerate up to 2 days.
Add pomegranate seeds for sweetness and color.
Add chopped green chili or spicy chutney for extra heat.
Use homemade puff pastry for richer flavor.
Substitute sev with crushed papdi or roasted nuts for texture variation.
Best enjoyed fresh to retain flaky and crunchy textures.
Leftover filling keeps in fridge for 2 days.
Puff pastry softens upon reheating; best fresh.
