There are many types of traditional recipes of potato stuffed samosas. But here we are telling you the recipe of traditional Punjabi stuffed potato samosa.

As I have stated earlier, there are hundreds of ways to make the Punjabi Samosa recipe across India. The only difference in them depends on their filling, shelling, shape, and method of preparation.

All of these variations traditionally originated when steamed and mashed spiced potatoes were filled in a cone made of fine flour. In fact, preparing this cone shape can be quite difficult.

Spicy potato stuffing can be ready in a few minutes as it is not very sweet, but it may take some time to shape the samosa and make it perfect. In this recipe and its video, I have explained the tricks and steps of shaping it very well. So, I would ask you to pay more attention to it and then you will be able to make it very easily.

Apart from this, I would also like to tell you some tips and suggestions for crispy, crunchy (flakey) and tasty samosa recipes.

First of all, lump maida or dau is very important for this recipe. I added oil to the dough and kneaded it for about 10 minutes. It is much tighter than maida, roti or chapati flour and you should feel flaky when kneading it.

Another important tip is to keep the stuffing ready beforehand. It should be cold because if it will be hot, you may have difficulty shaping it. Finally, if you are not able to give it the shape of a cone or cone, don't worry, there is another option for you.

You can give it the shape of Karanji or half-moon. Then deep fry the samosas on medium-low heat until crisp and tight.

Add 1 inch finely chopped ginger and 1 chili to it.

Mash and mix until the spices mix well.
