Rajgira Kuttu Samosas

Rajgira Kuttu Samosas are a delicious and healthy variation of traditional samosas made with Rajgira flour (Amaranth flour) and kuttu flour (buckwheat flour) as the main ingredients. These samosas are typically consumed during religious fasting periods such as vrat (Hindu fasting days) when certain foods are avoided.
