    This blog post, Crispy Homemade Pakistani-Style Chicken Samosa (Video), shares the filling recipe, folding technique, and tips for choosing and handling samosa sheets. Step-by-step instructions and a tutorial video make the process easy to follow.

    WHAT IS CHICKEN SAMOSA?

    Made in the comfort of home, the Homemade Crispy Pakistani-Style Chicken Samosa (Video) is a classic Pakistani appetizer recipe. With its perfectly crispy exterior, this chicken samosa is a crowd-pleaser at any gathering.

    With a golden-brown crust encasing a flavorful blend of spiced ground chicken, this delicacy is deep-fried to perfection. Lightly spiced, it traces its roots to the rich traditions of North India and Pakistan.

    Although deep-fried, this recipe feels surprisingly light, thanks to the use of ground chicken. It's perfect for unexpected guests or as a highlight of Iftar during Ramadan just like: Onion Pakoras and Beef Paaties.

    WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEEF AND CHICKEN SAMOSA?

    The key difference between Beef Samosas and Chicken Samosas lies in their filling. Beef Samosas typically offer a heartier and more substantial filling compared to the lighter Chicken Samosas.

    WHAT ARE CHICKEN SAMOSA MADE OF?

    Making Chicken Samosas requires finely ground chicken with a smooth, uniform texture, avoiding any coarse or chunky bits.

    INGREDIENTS

    • Chicken- Ground chicken should be used for this recipe. The texture of the ground chicken should be fine not chunky.

    HOW TO MAKE THE CHICKEN FILLING?

    Add whole spices.

    Next add ginger garlic paste.

    Add ground chicken.

    Now add salt and powdered spices.

    Dry the ground chicken.

    Cilantro.

    HOW TO FOLD THE CHICKEN SAMOSA?

    Make the binding mixer.

    For the samosa sheets that are not being used at the moment cover them with damp paper towel.

    Viola! you're done.

    Fry them on both side evenly.

    Until they are golden on both sides.

    You're done!

    HOW TO STORE IT?

    Among the freezer-friendly Pakistani recipes featured on the blog, this one is particularly easy to prepare. To freeze the samosas, place them in a ziplock bag, arranging them side by side with a small gap of ¼ to ½ inch between each.

    Seal the ziplock bag tightly and lay it flat in the freezer, ensuring the samosas don’t touch. Freeze them for 30 to 60 minutes. After that, you can store them more loosely, as they won’t stick together even if they’re in contact.

    I strongly recommend freezing the beef samosas before frying, rather than frying them right away. When you're ready to cook, simply take out the desired amount and deep-fry them. There's no need to thaw them first, as doing so may cause excess moisture.

    WHAT TO SERVE WITH IT?

    The perfect pairing for Chicken Samosa is definitely Green Chutney or Pudina Chutney, though I occasionally enjoy it with Khatti Meethi Chutney for a delightful twist.

    WHICH SAMOSA SHEETS TO USE?

    Over the years, my mother and I searched for the perfect bed sheets, but our search ended when we found this one, thanks to its exceptional quality. Below is an image of the one I fully recommend.
