Once again, we're ditching the turkey this Christmas, and having a curry feast
What i need is a kick ass lamb samosa recipe. Tried a few now, and they tasted kinda bland.
Anybody care to share?![]()
Do you have any Asian supermarkets near you?
If so, look in there for the frozen ones. Humza Branded ones. All their stuff is excellent and just needs frying.
No turkey at Christmas
You can have a curry any day of the year,but Christmas has to be turkey and all the trimmings.I'm looking forward to mine already![]()
nice - i just bought a bag of 50 humza lamb samosa's!![]()
Actually it should be goose.
Hi,
Sorry but I have never found any brand of ready made Samosa's good at all & I have tried tons of them!
With Indian food, making it at home is always the best by far & wide as you can control quality & freshness of ingredients & spices with no artificial crap or preservatives & "dodgy" bits! The thing that will be missing is the art & skill of balancing all the ingredients!
My advice is to try & learn from some Indian friends who might be prepared to teach you & have a whole lot of fun & some mega tasty Samosas in the process! Nothing beats home made!
Suave!
Homemade samosas are just in a different league altogether... Maybe shouldn't be compared to ready made frozen ones as those all have similar tastes albeit with differing qualities.
Our homemade ones are a plain flour type pastry so they are soft not crunchy/ crispy. Over the years iv started really liking the frozen filo pastry type ones ... Had a few of the humza lamb ones today and they were mmmmmmm! Not many peas in them either which was nice. I did find them very spicy though but I'm not sure if it's because my taste buds are still playing up since I'm 4 days post nasal surgery.

I don't see the what the big deal about turkey is?
or Tandoori TurkeyHave a Turkey curry!
I can't help with a recipe , but Asda sell some amazing ones in the halal frozen section. Bought some yesterday.

Totally agree...I love Meat Samosa's and was shocked how good the ones from Asda were...
It wouldn't seem like Christmas without the traditional turkey dinner for me.Having a curry just doesn't seem right,you might aswell have a Christmas doner kebab![]()
Tesco also have them in the Asian foods section.
There is a brand called Aisha's which some of the supermarkets sell. They are OK as well but not as good as the Humza ones.
