It was yesterday afternoon
when in a mood to pamper my mother I asked her what did she want to eat, while
munching on a snack myself.
"Samosa", her reply came a little carelessly though promptly. I
know like any Indian lady, like me, she has a soft corner for Indian-chaat
especially Golgappas (puchka), Samosa and Bhelpuri. I planned
to get some samosas from neighboring market for evening snack time with tea. My dad under the influence of his healthy preferences suggested that we cook
some at home instead or postpone them for next day, (having indulged a little too much in the last couple of days
of festivals).
But adamant as I am sometimes and in full mood to coddle my mother, I decided to prepare them at home. I am not a professional chef, but being an enthusiast from an early age I normally don't leave my chance to romance with cooking. Since I have helped my mother twice before so I decided to do the task all by myself without any assistance. Post all preparations I couldn't find the plastic mold with which we used to give good shapes to this snack. But after one hour of hard-work I completed the task. When along with tea I served hand-made first time trials, my mother couldn't stop laughing.

"Taste them Ma." I was laughing in
embarrassment too.
"These are sumptuous!" She exclaimed. My dad loved
them even more. My sister gave some 'pat-on-my-back' compliments.
"But never make these, once you are married.
I don't want anybody to blame me that I taught you these", referring to
their shape, mother said teasingly.
"Ah! I will make them for sure in that case,
so they will never ask me to make them again. It will solve the problem
forever.", I said laughing.
P.S. They tasted splendid, don't judge them by their deformations!!!
P.P.S. One of my friend told me how to shape them in absence of mold, which I think I did, but would love to try again sometime with more concentration.
P.P.P.S. After making blunder-samosas, today morning I decided to wash away my sins by preparing breakfast. This is what I made:
