Blueberry samosas make an easy and delicious dessert.

These blueberry samosas are a play on my apple samosas recipe. They are so convenient to serve at the end of a curry feast.

Samosas are usually savoury and served at the beginning of a meal. These dessert samosas are therefore unique. You might also like to try my beef or chicken samosa recipes. If you're vegetarian, I've got you covered too.

How do you make blueberry samosas?

It's actually a quite easy process. All you need to do is prepare a simple blueberry filling. Unlike my savoury samosa recipe which call for homemade samosa wrappers, this recipe uses shop-bought filo pastry.

All you need to do is wrap the cooled filling in the pastry and bake as in the recipe below.

Can you work ahead?

Yes. You can prepare the blueberry filling a couple of days ahead of serving. Just keep it in the fridge, wrapped tightly and then take it out to wrap up your blueberry samosas.

It's quite easy to prepare so you might just want to do it all in one go.

You can also wrap up the blueberry samosas a couple of hours before baking.

Can these samosas be frozen?

I don't recommend doing this. The custard will not freeze well. It's best to just prepare and bake them on the same day.

What do you serve with blueberry samosas?

You can eat these samosas on their own. The custard filling is so good and not to be missed. That said, you might like to serve them with ice cream or perhaps even my chocolate kulfis.

Finished blueberry samosas — Ready to dig in!

Samosas served with ice cream — I don't really have a sweet tooth but I could eat this again now.
