Switz Patti Samosas
Did
you know: Patti Samosa is integral to traditional Iftaar meals?
Mumbai
/ Chennai, 22nd May 2019: Ramzan is
the holy month of the Muslim calendar, dedicated to prayer and introspection.
On each day of this holy month, the fast begins before dawn and ends at dusk.
No food or water. It’s tough.
However, it’s also a
month of celebration in the family as Suhoor and Iftaar preparations are
underway. While dates and milk are the focus for Suhoor to sustain one
throughout the day; the Iftaar platter usually comprises of fruits and the
humble Samosa. Flat, triangular and crispy, filled with Kheema in most cases.
All through the month of
Ramzan, globally as well as in parts of India, almost all Iftaar meals will
have the traditional Patti Samosa as a part of the daily fare.
The humble samosa (or
Sambosa, as it is called in the country of its origin) is a Yemeni dish, a
staple of the Iftaar platter. This Yemeni tradition travelled through traders
throughout the Arab world, Eastern Africa and Western India. With
globalization, this tradition has spread with Muslim communities as far as
North America, Canada, the UK, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia and
New Zealand.
