Malawian Samosas
This is the fast food of Malawi. I remember seeing trays of samosas handed up to bus windows for passengers to purchase for their journey. Our family enjoys these over the Christmas holidays when they were home to help assemble and fry. This recipe also originally came from Linda Roecker who served in Malawi as well.
