V. Chocolate Samosa: No, potato samosas haven’t lost their charm. But, we do take things one notch higher once in a while and this is exactly what we’re doing with swapping the good old mix with everyone’s favourite – chocolate. Evening snack or after-dinner dessert – gorge on it the way you want. The charm will never get old!
