A video featuring samosa in a familiar avatar has grabbed many eyeballs on social media for what the dish is being called. The reel shows a content creator combining samosas (cut into small pieces), chopped onions, cucumber, jalapeno peppers, yoghurt, lettuce leaves, imli chutney, green chutney, pomegranate seeds, and green onions into the same bowl. She then closes the lid of the container and shakes it well until all the ingredients are mixed properly. Then, she opens the lid, shows the bowl to the lens and says, “Just look at that.”
Following this, the content creator eats the dish while continuing the recording and can be heard saying, “Here is the samosa salad. This is so easy to make. Who doesn’t love a good samosa? Sweet and spicy. I have to say, this is the salad I can eat every single day.” She captioned the video, “SAMOSA SALAD,” punctuated by a green salad emoji.
