    Air fryer Samosa is a favourite savory Indian snack which has an outer flaky pastry layer with a spiced potato and veggie filling. It is a favorite accompaniment with evening tea.

    Samosas are traditionally slow deep fried making them brimming with calories. This was one of the reasons I avoided consuming them.

    But making air fryer samosa in my Philips Airfryer helps me save Calories.

    Samosa recipe remains the same if you want to give it a go with traditional deep frying.

    All you'll do in the end is deep fry the samosas to a crisp golden brown in hot oil instead of air frying.

    You can also do frozen samosa in air fryer.

    What is Samosa?

    Samosa is a much-loved Indian snack that is traditionally vegan.

    The most popular version has a spiced mashed potato and peas filling in a flaky outer pastry.

    These are traditionally deep fried on a medium flame.

    They are very popular evening snack with a nice cup of chai.

    Ingredients

    Ingredients for outer Pastry or shell

    1. All-purpose flour (Maida): 1 cup flour is used here.

    2. Spices: ½ tsp. of Carom seeds or Ajwain gives it a nice flavor and helps with digestion too.

    3. Vegetable oil: 2 tbsp. is used for a flaky dough. You may use ghee as well if you consume dairy.

    4. Cold water: Helps in making the dough firm.

    5. Salt: ½ teaspoon or as per taste

    Ingredients for the Filling

    1. Potatoes: 3 medium-sized potatoes are boiled, peeled, and mashed. I like them to retain some shape.

    2. Peas: ½ cup boiled green peas. I have used frozen ones here.

    3. Oil: 2 tsp. oil is used for sauteing the filling.

    4. Spices: This filling is quite flavorful and uses all these spices: ½ tsp. cumin seeds, asafoetida ⅛ tsp. (optional), turmeric powder ½ tsp., cayenne ½ tsp., garam masala ½ tsp., amchur ½ tsp. and coarsely ground coriander 1 tsp.

    5. Ginger and green chilies: 2 finely chopped green chillies and 1-inch piece of grated ginger is used to flavor the filling.

    6. Salt: It is used as per taste.

    3 samosas served on a white plate.

    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    1. Healthier Option: A traditionally deep fried samosa could range from 300 to 400 Calories.

    Samosas made in the air fryer will be about 150 to 200 Calories. It will vary depending upon the size of your samosa and the oil used overall.

    2. Flaky: Despite not deep frying, the outer crust is flaky and slightly crisp. It is delicious.

    3. Mess free: I avoid deep frying due to the mess of hot oil and also what to do with the leftover oil.

    Instructions

    This recipe needs a few ingredients. You can source the spices in an Indian store.

    Assemble all the spices along with processed flour or maida.

    To make outer shell or pastry of samosa:

    Take 1 cup maida or refined flour or all-purpose flour.

    Sieve it with ½ tsp. salt. Add ½ tsp. ajwain or carrom seeds or use dried oregano.

    samosa recipe airfryer

    Add 2 tbsp. of vegetable oil. I have used mustard oil here that is why it looks so yellow.

    You can use any vegetable oil like peanut oil or olive oil.

    You can also use melted ghee or clarified butter.

    3. Now mix all these ingredients together to get a sand-like consistency.

    This is important so that the pastry turns out flaky and not crispy.

    samosa recipe airfryer

    Now slowly add 1-2 tbsp. of cold water at a time and knead a stiff dough while using as little water as possible.

    Again, this is important as we want the outer shell to be flaky.

    Keep this dough covered with a damp kitchen cloth or towel and keep aside for 20 minutes.

    To prepare the samosa filling:

    Take 1 tbsp. oil in a hot pain.

    Add ½ tsp. cumin seeds along with finely chopped green chillies and grated ginger. Cook for a minute.

    samosa recipe airfryer

    Add fresh or frozen peas.

    If needed add a little water and cook till peas are done which takes about 4 minutes.

    how to make samosa

    Now add in the mashed or chopped potatoes.

    Add salt, asafoetida, cayenne or red chilli powder, ground coriander, garam masala powder and amchur or dried mango powder.

    Mix well and cook till the filling mixture is dry.

    how to make samosa

    Keep aside to cool down.

    how to make samosa

    To assemble the samosa:

    The outer pastry is made by rolling out a ball of dough and then cutting it into half.

    samosa airfryer

    2. Seal the straight end of the half oval by using water to form a conical pocket.

    Add filling into the conical pocket leaving place at the ends to seal.

    Seal by applying water and shut it tight. Your samosa with filling is ready.

    Make all samosas in this manner.

    How to Make Samosas in Air fryer

    Pre-heat the air fryer at 160 C or 320 F for 5 minutes.

    Now brush samosas with oil and place them in the Air fryer. Make sure that they are not overlapping.

    Air fry at 160C or 320 F for about 8 minutes. Flip once midway for even cooking.

    Now Air fry at 200 C or 390 F for about another 6-8 minutes till the samosas look done and golden.

    Serve hot with green chutney or ketchup.

    Your air fried samosa is ready to serve. It is super flaky and delicious.

    2 samosas on a white plate.

    To Deep fry samosa

    Take oil in a pan and heat the oil on a low flame.

    Now slowly slide the samosas in making sure not to crowd the pan.

    Cook on low flame for about 6-8 minutes. This ensures that the samosas stay flaky and do not develop air bubbles.

    Now increase the temperature to medium temperature. Fry further for about 6 minutes till the samosas are golden brown. Serve hot.

    Overall, this samosa is a tasty, much-healthier version of this much-loved Indian snack.

    Try it. Your delicious samosa is ready to be had with adrak chai.

    FAQs

    1. Can you air fry frozen samosas?

    Yes, it is easy to air fry frozen samosas. Preheat air fryer at 360 F or 180 C for 5 minutes. Cook frozen samosas for about 8-10 minutes, flipping them once midway. Keep checking to ensure that they are done.

    2. Can you warm a samosa in the air fryer?

    Yes you can. Preheat air fryer at 360 F or 180 C for 5 minutes. Place cold samosas and air fry for 2-3 minutes till they are hot to touch.

    Variations

    1. Dairy free: This recipe is is dairy free (if you use oil). For dairy eaters, you can use ghee in place of oil for a buttery taste.

    2. Outer pastry: You could use wholewheat flour or a combination of wholewheat flour and millet flour for the outer pastry.

    3. Use puff pastry: Instead of making outer crust from scratch, you can use readymade puff pastry dough or crescent roll as a substitute.

    Fillings Alternatives

    While potato and peas is a traditional filling for this samosa, you can use pretty much any filling of choice.

    1. Cabbage, carrots and onion: Saute onions. Add grated cabbage and carrots. Use seasonings or sauces of choice.

    Cook. Cool down and use as filling.

    2. Lentils: Cooked lentils or beans make for an excellent high protein complex carbohydrate filling.

    3. Tofu or Paneer: Crumbled tofu or paneer cooked with onions and spices make for an excellent filling.

    4. Meat: In case you eat meat, minced chicken or other meat cooked with spices make for a good filling.

    Expert Tips

    1. Your dough must be stiff but not so stiff that you are not able to roll it out. Don’t use any flour to roll out dough.

    It’s okay if when rolling out your shape is not perfect. The taste will be good.

    2. Using cold water makes the dough nice and stiff that helps with flakiness.

    3. You must rest the dough as mentioned so that the samosa shell turns out flaky.

    4. You can add other veggies too or add chicken or mutton mince if you like to make meat samosa.

    5. You must keep the filling very dry to avoid the samosas going soggy after you fry them and keep.

    6. Once filled and sealed, you can keep the samosas in the fridge for up to 3 days to fry later.

    7. You can also freeze the prepared samosas for upto 3 months and then air fry when ready to eat. This way you can make a large batch.

    8. Your pastry will turn out flaky when you incorporate your shortening eg. Ghee or oil in your dough.

    Don’t skimp on this or your samosa will not be flaky but hard and dry.

    To assemble the samosa:

    • Divide the shell dough into round balls. Roll them out using a rolling pin. Make them oval in shape. Now cut them into halves.
    • Use water on the straight cut side to seal the shell in the shape of an open cone.
    • Now add the filling in the cone and leave enough space on top to seal the samosa.
    • Add a little water along the lining to seal the samosa firmly shut.

      Great post Rachna!It has been ages since I had my last Samosa! I want to buy an Airfryer but I am confused between Philips Airfryer and Usha Halogen Oven with airfryer attachment.Heard this oven is good. Any idea?

        Thanks, Sharmila. I dislike the market samosa too. So much fat and loaded with unhealthy stuff like Dalda. Makes me sick. I have cursorily read about Usha Halogen Oven. It does not have airfryer attachment. It uses the same airfrying technique. Since it is glass, it looks nicer. It does the same baking, grilling, airfrying that an airfryer does. It has some extra features like cleaning and sterilizing which don't seem spectacular to me. My experience this far with Philips Airfryer has been really good. I should be putting up a review in a few days. Usha seems nice too. I guess, you will have to wait for someone who has actually used the product to review it. 🙂 Both these products are much faster than our conventional ovens.

      Oh, the airfryer sounds too good to be true :/ Does it really banish all the calories that accumulate due to deep frying? Does it cook properly?

        May 25, 2015 at 4:26 pm

        I will be doing a review of my airfryer soon and will be covering all the aspects of taste, calories etc. in that. To answer your questions: It does reduce calories because you are only brushing the fat instead of deep frying. Most dishes I've tried so far taste great. There are exceptions that I'll mention in the post. This samosa is wonderfully tasty but the texture of the outer covering is very different from a conventional samosa. Considering that those are achieved by excessive Dalda, I think this is an option worth exploring.

      I don't understand a thing about air friers. However, talk of samosas and I can walk that extra mile to have it. There have been times when I have parked my safari near road side stalls to savour the samosas and some gravy curry. It serves as a quick lunch without wasting time as I don't drive during night. So saving time during daytime is very important for me while driving. And I enjoy driving, so I don't drive too fast - just about 100 or 120 kmph. So invariably I keep a watch out for outlets selling samosas. 🙂

        That is an interesting ode to our favorite snack, Sabyasachi. During my last trip to Rajasthan, we ended up having a lot of kachoris and puris for breakfast. They fill you up nicely and keep hunger pangs at bay. But, at home, I prefer to have them very rarely.

      Great recipe. And very simple to follow instructions. Love the fact that preparation and cooking time is less when frying with an air fryer.

      Thanks for the airfryer infromation. May I know which airfryer you purchased? what was the capacty and cost?. I would like to bake,grill and airfry different stuff. Which is best suitable, a convection microwave oven, air fryer or an OTG?

        I have both an Air fryer and OTG. I definitely prefer Air fyrer for shorter cooking times and crisper food. Here is the review of the Air fryer I currently use: https://www.rachnacooks.com/2015/05/28/philips-airfryer-user-review/

      Cook this at 80 temp for 40mins.. Then it doesn't dries out the pasty... Won't be flaky but won't be too hard to bite as well.

        Haven't tried that so far. Perhaps the instructions on the pack help or you could try by instinct the first time and see.

      I love samosa but have never made it before. Luckily I have an air fryer so I can use this recipe and I reckon it'll be much healthier than the restaurant version!

      I haven't made samosa in the air fryer yet and cannot wait to try your recipe out - I especially love the ajwain or carrom seeds in the crust!

      I love finding new ways to use my slow cooker, and I never would have thought to make samosas in it. These look great.

      This was my first time making samosas and they turned out perfectly! The samosas came out super crispy in the air fryer and I liked that they were healthier than deep-fried.

      When we used to have potlucks at work, one guy would bring in samosas made by his wife. They are awesome! I never wanted to make them myself until I saw your recipe. The air fryer makes it so easy! The results were outstanding. Now I'll be making these on repeat!
