 Avil samosa is one the easiest, delicious and spicy samosa filling i ever had. Try this quick and easy preparation and you will absolutely love it's taste. There is white and brown rice flakes varieties are available. I used brown rice flakes .It is more harder than white. They need to wash properly (2 or three times) and soak in water for 2-3 minutes.
