Samosas make me extremely nostalgic. Not a potato filled ones but rather lentils and meat stuffed samosa which are a known delicacy of the little town I come from. Growing up, any feast or occasion had to include samosa. Mom starts her morning by making pastry from whole wheat flour which is similar to making roti. Two balls of dough are put together pressed at edges and then rolled out thinly. While its cooked on the griddle, the air fills and separates the two layer of pastry that were put together leading to two thin sheets of round pastry.

Mix Dal Tadka - Indian Lentils Soup
I was having a hard time naming this recipe of dal which is a generic name for Indian lentils in Hindi. What you think dal actually is ? A soup? A stoup? A stew ? Its certainly not a curry that is what I'm certain of. I actually kind of get irritated when every Indian dish is named as curry. So I decided to stick with soup!
