Mini-samosas are bite-sized versions that are typically served at home or cafés. The frozen version is largely used as a party snack.

McCain Mini Samosas are cheesy, and mildly spicy, which could be attributed to the black pepper in it. It is crispy from outside, and has got a nice crunch that makes it our Top Pick.

In fact, McCain Mini Samosas also have the maximum amount of filling. With a crispy and crunchy exterior and adequate amount of stuffing, you get a delicious bite, every time.

Our Review Process

You will find very few Indians who do not like a hot, crispy samosa, hot off the frying pan. While there are many variations and recipes, both traditional and modern, it would be safe to say that aloo and masalas remain a constant in all recipes. While regular samosas are most often bought from local halwais and sweet shops, mini-samosas are mostly served to guests at home, or in cafés and restaurants to guests. These mini-samosas also tend to innovate the fillings a bit; some have cheese, others may contain corn, peas, etc. Since we were looking for the Tastiest mini-samosa, we included as many commonly available brands, even if their fillings differed.

Frozen foods make great additions to your party menu. They are not only delicious but can be prepared in a few minutes.

This review is for people who like the crunch and taste of fried snacks, and also those who often entertain at home. Ready to cook snacks add variety to your hosting menu, and also quick and convenient.

Tasting Process

We based our review largely on taste. The overall taste of a snack like this will be governed by factors like crunch, quality of filling and quantity of filling with respect to the outer covering. We observed all the brands for these factors upon frying during multiple taste sessions.

We were looking for a samosa-shaped vegetarian mini snack, with fillings that may vary. However, as a consumer, you do not expect it to be a replica of the samosas you get in the market. You want innovation in the filling, yet not something so spicy and heavy that you can not eat more than one or two. We fried and tasted all of them in our test kitchen to see how different they were to the original samosas.

We also observed all brands for price and packaging too.

Result Of Our Review Process

McCain Mini Samosa stood out overall in our taste-test. It also had a delicious filling and an equally delightful and crispy exterior. We liked Snacky’s vegetable samosa too, but these were replicas of market samosas taste-wise, complete with lots of aloo, peas, masalas, etc. We believe if that is the flavor you seek, you would prefer to have them fresh from the local halwai. Why have the frozen variant?

Mini-samosas when fried and offered to guests at home, also need to look appetizing and should be uniformly shaped. here too, McCain Mini Samosa emerged as the best amongst all.
