Instructions
Prepare the Samosa Filling

- Add the chopped coriander and mix well. Remove from heat. Set aside.
Assemble the Samosas
- Trim the crusts off the bread slices and roll them out thinly using a rolling pin.
- Cut each bread slice into two triangles.
- Lightly brush one half of each triangle with water.
- Fold the bread into a cone shape, pressing gently to seal.
- Fill each cone with approximately 1 tablespoon of the potato filling.
- Moisten the edges of the bread with water and seal tightly.
Fry the Samosas
- Heat the remaining oil in a deep pan or kadai over medium heat.
- Carefully fry the samosas in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Bread Samosas
- For extra crispy samosas, use day-old bread; it's less likely to become soggy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan while frying; this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy samosas.
- If your filling seems too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water to achieve the desired consistency.
- Experiment with different spices to customize the filling to your taste. A pinch of turmeric adds a beautiful color and flavor.
