Samosa

The Indian version of pocket food is the samosa and this portable treat is very popular within South Asia. From baked to fried, they are most commonly found in a triangle shape with a range of different vegetables packed inside. They are generally not as spicy has people think however the heat of samosas can vary.

Chutney and Raita

This is a relish that you can dip a samosa in. In fact, a chutney is a word given to a sauce that has spice, fruit or vegetable included and comes in either red or green. The Indian version of these are like a salsa of some kind. On the other hand, raita is a yogurt sauce that includes a perfect blend of spices and herbs.

Naan
