Dry Masala Samose

I always remember those packets of small samosas in all bakery stores back in my childhood which dad use to buy for guests along with many other stuffs..that time i used to wonder what the hell is in these small nuggets which make them so tasty,full packed with flavors with just a hint of sweetness !

Finally after all these years,i decoded the spice mixture !! n surprisingly its just besan sev n raisins :P.
This snack is basically from Gujarat.Any kind of sev can be use in the filling.i added spices as per my taste buds..u can use lesser or more as per yours..just keep tasting while preparing. So,without further ado...here s my recipe for dry samosa :
