Samosa from Costco rotis

My sister made these amazing samosas with Costco rotis.

I said "Gallo thelinattunde"
My husband sang to the tune
"Nunelo devinattunde"

which translates to
it feels like

flying in the air(gallo)
fried in the oil.

float is the word for thelinattu, which works well for the other line too. People refer to a greasy thing as it floating in oil. Which reminds me of the grease cleaning tank that I saw today at the office cafeteria, pumping out oil from the grease trap. I had read about restaurant having grease traps, but didnt know that the cleaning involved was so tech.

I like the classic puffish look of the samosas.

I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
