{"title":"Frozen Pastry \u0026 Samosa Leaves","description":"\u003cp\u003eSamosa leaves, also sold as samosa pastry or samosa pads, are thin, lightly cooked wheat sheets cut into strips or rounds. They are folded into a cone, filled and sealed with a paste of flour and water, then fried or baked. The same leaves wrap spring rolls and cigar shaped kebab rolls, and they crisp up far more evenly than a home rolled dough. Puff pastry squares are layered with fat so they rise into flaky layers in the oven, the base for vegetable puffs, chicken patties, egg puffs and sweet turnovers of the kind sold in bakeries across India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose leaves by the number in the pack and pastry squares by size: smaller squares make bite sized party puffs, larger ones a filling snack.
