Bread Samosa Sandwich is my go-to recipe when I want the flavors of samosa without the fuss of making traditional pastry dough. I stumbled upon this idea during a busy weeknight when I craved samosas but didn’t have time for the usual prep. The bread works perfectly as a wrapper, getting crispy on the outside while staying soft inside. The layers of spiced potatoes, green chutney, and ketchup create amazing flavor combinations in every bite.
About the Recipe
This recipe puts a new spin on both samosas and sandwiches. The bread makes it much quicker than traditional samosas, while the filling stays authentic with spiced potatoes and classic Indian seasonings. It’s perfect for snacks, parties, or a fun weekend lunch. Kids love it because it’s crunchy and familiar, while adults enjoy the traditional samosa flavors.

The potato filling stays good in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just bring it to room temperature before using.
