Samosa (2 Pcs)

Golden, flaky and packed with spiced filling, the samosa is India's most famous snack, and one of the most-ordered starters at Curry Gate. Each order comes with two crispy samosas, perfect for a quick bite or for sharing before your meal.

Samosas have a long history. Versions of this stuffed pastry traveled along ancient trade routes from Central Asia to India centuries ago. Indian cooks made it their own with bold spices and hearty vegetable fillings. Today, the samosa is a beloved snack across India and Nepal, sold at street stalls, tea shops and restaurants, and enjoyed at festivals, family gatherings and everyday teatime.

Our samosas are made with a flaky, golden pastry shell, folded into the classic triangle shape and stuffed with a savory filling of vegetables. The filling is traditionally made with potatoes and green peas, seasoned with warm spices like cumin, coriander and garam masala, fresh ginger, green chillies and cilantro. The samosas are deep-fried until the outside is crisp and golden, while the filling stays soft, warm and full of flavor.

The result is a snack that is crispy, savory and warmly spiced, with a satisfying crunch in every bite. It's simple and comforting.

Samosas are best enjoyed with our classic dipping sauces. Try sweet and tangy Tamarind Chutney, fresh and zesty Mint Chutney, or both, for the traditional Indian experience. Want to take it further? Try our Samosa Chaat, where crispy samosas are topped with chickpeas, onions, cilantro and chutneys.

Samosas are vegetarian and a crowd-pleaser for kids, families, office lunches and first-time guests trying Indian food.

Whether you're grabbing a snack in Uptown, starting dinner in South End, or picking up takeout near NoDa, Curry Gate brings authentic Indian and Nepali flavors to Charlotte, NC. Order Samosas for dine-in, pickup or delivery.
