The Most Famous Samosa in Stockholm
For years, one snack has stood out as a true icon of Anmol Sweets & Restaurant: our Samosa. It’s more than just a menu item; it’s a testament to our commitment to authentic flavour, quality, and the art of traditional cooking. Each samoosa is a perfect triangle of joy, handcrafted with precision and passion by our expert chefs every single day.
This is the snack that locals, expatriates, and tourists travel across Stockholm for. Whether you’re a long-time fan or trying it for the first time, you’ll understand why Anmol is synonymous with the best samosas in Sweden.
The Anatomy of a Perfect Samosa (sambōsag)
What makes our samosa so irresistible? It’s the perfect harmony of two key elements:
- The Pastry: We achieve the perfect balance between crispy and flaky. Our dough is made fresh and rolled to the ideal thickness, creating a beautiful golden shell when fried that shatters satisfyingly with every bite without being greasy.
- The Filling: The heart of our sammosa is a fragrant and savoury filling made from fluffy potatoes and sweet green peas, mashed and spiced with a traditional blend of cumin, coriander, turmeric, and other secret spices, all balanced with the freshness of cilantro.
Every samosa is served hot and fresh with our signature mint and tamarind chutneys, providing the perfect cool and tangy counterpoint to the warm, savoury pastry.

Frequently Asked Questions about Samosas
Q: Where do samosas come from? (Var kommer samosa ifrån?)
A: While samosas are famous worldwide, especially in South Asia and the Middle East, their origin can be traced back to the Middle East centuries ago. They were originally called sanbosag. The version popular today, with its spiced potato filling, was perfected on the Indian subcontinent and has become one of the world’s most beloved snacks.
Q: What do you eat with a samosa? (Vad äter man till samosa?)
A: Samosas are incredibly versatile! They are most commonly served as a snack or appetizer with dipping sauces, like mint chutney (a cool, herby yogurt sauce) or tamarind chutney (a sweet and tangy sauce). They are also fantastic with a cup of hot chai (spiced tea). For a more filling meal, you can enjoy them as part of a “samosa chaat,” where the samosa is broken up and topped with yogurt, chutneys, chickpeas, and spices.
Q: What is the difference between various types of samosas? (Relating to “Hur gör man somaliska samosa?”)
A: While we specialize in the classic potato-filled version, samosas are made differently all over the world! For example, some versions, like those popular in Somalia, often have a much thinner, crispier pastry and are typically filled with spiced minced meat (beef or lamb) or fish. Our version focuses on the flaky pastry and savoury vegetarian filling that is iconic in India and Pakistan.
Q: How is the samosa dough made? (Hur gör man samosa deg?)
A: Creating the perfect samosa dough is an art! It’s a simple-looking but precise mixture of all-purpose flour (vetemjöl), water, salt, and a fat like oil or ghee. The key is to knead it to the right consistency – firm but pliable – and to let it rest. This process is what allows the pastry to become sturdy enough to hold the filling yet wonderfully flaky and bubbly when fried.
Q: What is Swedish name of Samosa? (Vad kallas samosa på svenska?)
A: In Swedish, a samosa is most commonly still called “samosa” — especially in restaurants, grocery stores, and among the general public. Since it’s not a traditional Swedish dish, the original name is typically used.
However, for a more descriptive label (like in menus or food packaging), it might be referred to as:
“Friterad degknyte med kryddig fyllning” – Fried pastry with spicy filling
“Indisk pirog” – Indian pasty
