ABOUT Samosa Pinwheels RECIPE

A Samosa is a fried snack with a savoury filling, like spiced potatoes, peas or minced meat. But here to make it Jain, I am using raw bananas instead of potatoes. Samosa Pinwheels is a slight alternation to the traditional Samosa and is as delicious as the samosas. Serve them as appetizers or snacks!
