Spicy Roses

It’s that time of the year – when the heavens open up and shower upon us, cooling down the earth scorched by the Indian summer. The monsoons are probably everyone’s favorites season, if you ignore the inevitable flooded streets that accompany them! The best way to enjoy the rains is to stay indoors and cook up some soul food.

Samosas are an all-time favorite of most Indians, but there is something about the crackle of its freshly fried cover that complements the pitter patter of raindrops so perfectly that it just becomes the go-to snack once the dark clouds gather! But In spite of Samosas, I am trying here another version of samosas, which are so spicy, colorful and beautiful. The stuffing must be lil spicy when you are craving for that Pakoras feeling. Here, I had make the different version of samosas with the concept of Roses. The thought came when I was actually thinking of samosa pinwheels.

Suddenly, My little Princess was enjoying her Baby Tv's show, And I just took a Tv remote, fetching the channels, I stop at one Place, where the children's craft work was going on and they were teaching kids how to make roses from papers.... From that I got an Idea to make Roses From the Dough, First I tried to make them with a simple Roti Dough, and then I was Quite Sure that the result will be amazing and Here it is...
