Samosas are a popular Indian snack that consists of a deep-fried pastry filled with various ingredients such as spiced potatoes, vegetables, or meat. The nutritional value of a samosa can vary based on its size, filling, and cooking method. Here is an approximate nutritional value for a standard-sized vegetable samosa (approximately 80 grams) that is commonly available:
- Calories: 260-320 calories
- Carbohydrates: 30-40 g
- Dietary fiber: 2-4 g
- Sugars: 1-2 g
- Protein: 5-8 g
- Fat: 12-15 g
- Saturated fat: 3-4 g
- Monounsaturated fat: 6-7 g
- Polyunsaturated fat: 3-4 g
- Sodium: 400-600 mg
Please note that these values are approximate and can vary depending on the specific recipe and preparation method used. If the samosa is filled with meat, the protein and fat content may be higher. The deep-frying process can also significantly increase the calorie and fat content of the samosa.
It’s important to consume samosas in moderation as part of a balanced diet due to their higher calorie and fat content.
