(Sambouseh Gusht va Sibzamini)
My sister used to make this Samosa. She is a really awesome cook, and I love anything she makes, but growing up her #samosas were one of my favorites.
I don’t recall her walking me through the steps or teach me exactly how to do it, but I remember watching her while she was making it. As far as I remember mine tastes exactly the same, just hers wasn’t spicy at all.
Like any other samosa is the best to have it as soon as it’s made, hot and crispy. The best description of this Samosa is to say, imagine filling the crunchiest bread #tahdig you ever had with a tasty meat sauce and then bite it.

💖Deep fry the samosas until reach golden brown color
💖Serve it with your favorite sauce or side dish and enjoy
NOTE: my bread wasn’t very fresh I guess, so it was dry and it was cracking when I was folding it. Make sure the bread you choose is soft and fully cover it or put it back in the bag after cutting. (Avoid leaving it out And expose to air while making the sauce)
