  Very delicious! They disappeared quicker than we could bake them, and I will be sure to make them again in the near future!

  Tried them for the first time, and had trouble with the triangle shape. Found it easier to make small parcels.

  What can I say... made double the amount and they all got eaten! Very delicious and easy to make and felt good as I've always bought them before!

  Very tasty recipe and easy to make - a bit fiddly to put together but worth the effort and so very satisfying to see a lovely pile of the end results! Lovely.

  I made these for the first time as we are Indian cuisine lovers. They were a little fiddly to put together, once cooked and eaten quickly they were fine and tasty , but if left to cool they soon go soggy. We also like spice so may go for a medium or hot curry powder next time.

  just made these to use up he filo left over the crispy greek style pie that we both love from this site. very simple to make, i used 1 medium sized potato, medium curry powder and finely chopped my ginger; managed to get 7 samosas out of my mixture, i didnt oil the sheets before i filled them, just brushed some oil over the top before baking - gorgeous! will freeze the remaining ones and reheat them on monday with our weekly curry! check out my baking blog http://bumblebakery.blogspot.co.uk/

  Following Cowen84's suggestion I didnt oil the sheets either, just brushed some oil over the top before baking. As others have commented, it's a bit fiddly to make the correct triangle shape at first but after a few I got the hang of it. There was only two of us so I didnt cook them all, and instead put them in the freezer to cook from frozen. I made the Spicy Indian Rice to go with them, and a cucumber riata. Tasty, filling and fast mid week meal, with the left overs for lunch!

  No problem making the filling but the pastry work was quite tricky. A really tasty snack that was well worth the effort.

  These were very nice I used carrots instead of beans as I didn't have beans. I used madras curry powder but the end result was not hot. I will make these again with more curry powder or add some chilli powder. Really easy to make
