Samosas, vegetable, retail

Vegetable samosas are pastry parcels with a mixed vegetable filling. The figures here describe retail vegetable samosas, which mainly provide carbohydrate and fat, along with some fibre and protein. Per 100g, they contain 30g of carbohydrate, 9.3g of fat, 3.5g of fibre and 0.98g of salt.

Carbohydrate provides energy for the body, while fibre supports normal bowel function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, and fat contributes to the overall energy content. Recipes and nutrient levels can vary between products. Full nutrient figures, including energy, sugars and saturated fat, are shown in the tables below.
