How 3,000 Legendary Samsas Are Baked Daily In Uzbekistan | Big Batches | Insider Food

- One of the most popular street foods in Uzbekistan is a pillowy pastry filled with minced meat, spices, onions, and sometimes vegetables. Known as samsas, these pastries come in all shapes and sizes and are always baked in vertical tandoor ovens. The result is a crispy and flaky outside layer that cocoons a steaming-hot meat center.
We visited Samsa Markazi, a popular restaurant in Namangan, Uzbekistan, that makes 20 different types of samsas and sells nearly 3,000 of them every weekend.

How 3,000 Legendary Samsas Are Baked In Uzbekistan | Big Batches | Insider Food
5:01 F for the lost Samsa
😂😂😂
))
I saw that too
The one that got away 🤣
nooooooo
For me the best part of a good samsa is the variety of textures. The meat is soft and chewy in a good way, it's fragrant and juicy, the dough is crispy and layered, the broth (if there's any) is fat, and rich in taste. And it's quite healthy because there's barely any oil, it's not fried, plus on the side you have a traditional cucumber and tomato salad which tastes like no other veggies and it glows with freshness.
As a man from northern England, and an international pie lover, this looks phenomenal.
The love for pie is just one more thing we have in common 😃
Samsa is not a pie. If it's cooked like a pie then it's diverging from traditional recipe. It's more like a dumpling that's baked or meat pastry
@@LovelyLittleLillies kind of like a pie tbh
would you eat horse meat?
@@neojng An Indian would turn around and ask you would you eat cow meat?
@elSOSA no I wouldn't, I wouldn't eat any meat.
Always felt something similar and close to food culture with central Asia as an Indian. Would love to visit Uzbekistan
Try Uzbekian plov and samsas it's very good,and different from other food
Most of central Asia(pakistan, afghanistan and some of uzbekistan) was always a part of India before the mughals et al came in. Hence the migration of samsas to India as samosas. In fact IVC extended till the borders of Afghanistan.
@@thehumanoid6543Nope, not even India was part of India. It was a collection of kingdoms, like all the countries in Europe. Otherwise you would all have one language instead you have like 3 billion. What you are seeing now is remnants of British India
WOW this should not be viewed with an empty belly passed midnight...
I love the fact that meat stuffed baked breads are like a universal standard of hearty good food, almost every culture in every continent has a variety of it. Even places where people don't eat wheat you can find it done with another starchy substitute. And they tastes so damn good.
We have that similar oven too, it's legendary for baking if you love crust.
While I have not tried a Samsa (yet), I have tried Uzbek food before (in NYC), and it is fantastic. The combination of flavors, the perfect spice levels, and the freshness blew me away. I have been craving it ever since. These Samsas look amazing, I don't know how I would be able to choose just one to try!
Here is a interesting fact (hope you pin this) those who work on tandoor don’t have hairs on their hand because of high heat their hair on hand got burned.
looks delicious, Türkiye'den kardeşlerimize selamlar.
Growing up South Asian cuisine , I am learning a lot recently about how most of it is inspired by Persian and Central Asian cuisine. I need to eventually visit Uzbekistan to see the originals!

its not persion its Ottoman.
@@DespothLord Lucinae was talking about samosas. Also interestingly, all the rice dishes in South Asia are somehow influenced by Iranian cuisine.
You re incorrect. Many things India has produced has been hijacked by other cultures and culturally appropriated. Look at Zero and ancient medical texts! The same applies to food. Basmati rice is grown in India for 1000's of years as well as Jasmine rice. Even this video tried to make it seem as Tandoor was invented elsewhere, when it has been documented that the oldest example example of a tandoor oven was found in Indus valley civilization! In India , the use of oil to make Samosa is due to time and efficiency. It's not practical to have a Tandoor for street food. South Indian, Orissa, Bengali, Northeastern cuisine has zero influence! Only parts of north India and amongst Muslim communities show such influence due to historical invasions.
@@khaganigasimov4044
Not true. The rice dishes are Indian based. Basmati is grown in bulk and variety in India. Iran rice production is nothing and their climate could never support enough production for their population. It has always been exported by South Asia in bulk. The influence is from the Islamic Kingdoms that tried to make inroads into the subcontinent and force Persian influence. Look at Urdu vs Hindi for example....
As an Indian this is fimiliar and yet not.. tandoors and samosas are both common but not together. We even have dough and meat cooked in tandoors of a similar nature, but not like this :)
Looks tasty
tasty? indians eats beef?
@@bladekhaira india is a country. your getting mixed up with religion. Hindus and sikhs do not eat beef. Their are muslim and christian indians who can eat beef.
@@theproblem9938 Hindus used to eat until they started to get infected from beef products. They understood infected beef was causing people to get brain disease and hence was banned.
Rig veda has analogies of eating cows while later ayurveda chapters bans from eating it for the above reasons.
It was also seen that loving cows gave them resistance from many deadly diseases and hence the culture of cow loving came knto picture.
Hundreds of years later, it is the same love for cows that Edward Jenner saw. He observed that while entire town was getting attacked by smallpox, it affect a single person who tended the cows and cared for them. This led to the discovery of vaccinations.
Some rules in religions were creates because of hypothesis. These never got proved in those era but hypothesis lead to cetain conclusion being made which further lead to brilliant scientific discoveries.
The problem with knowledge getting linked to religions leads to this problem. No one goes to find the root cause because apparently wveryone keeping a cow was solving the problem 😂
30 year chef. Never had Uzbek food, now I have to find some.

pls do!
I'd love to visit uzbekistan, these food videos are amazing
I've watched many videos on samsas and it's quite mesmerizing. Some day I'll get to taste it for myself.
Seeing how the samsas are made from dough to oven was fascinating. In the United States, nothing is cooked in such a manner. Sticking dough onto the walls of an earthen oven...outdoors. Where customers can watch the process. And, of course, the final product is alluring and delicious. A flaky exterior with succulent, juicy meat. Wow. One day, if I am so lucky, I want to try a samsa for myself.
Lets begin with a question, which restaurant starts a day with fresh ingredients and batches every single day?
Not many for sure, most of them use freezers and cant store food properly
The guys in the video put some hard work every single day and make food like it is home made.
The difference is just so big, they would be called a star michelin in the west.
search for Uzbek or Uygur restaurants in maps you may find in the area you are in. They make the small one with lamb or beef. most of them baking them in oven but still good.
Brick Oven baked pizza is very similar. You get to watch it cook at the restaurant too
@@fora1461 Good idea and a good point. I should probably do that.
@@Shred_Tube I never considered that. But, I guess, you're right. A brick oven pizza does seem like it might be similar. And, I haven't had a brick oven pizza in a loooonnnnggg time.
I want to fly across the world for a handful of those. I'm practically chewing my phone just watching this.

Same!! They look so tasty
its 200km away from me, I can send you one)
But it wont be nearly same if it is not freshly taken from tandir
same 😄
That looks legitimately incredible wow
Wow. And hear I thought I'd seen almost all the types of meat with dough pastries and pies... This looks absolutely delicious!
Samosa
Yeah it’s not 😂
i'd put the filling in a grinder
@@aaroncapricorn5867 they always have non stop power cuts in Namangan. They wouldn’t be able to grind it everyday.
@@Winterstorm137 manual grinder
Обожаю эту кухню!

My father immigrated from Uzbekistan to Israel (as a Jew, during harsh soviet rule) and since he introduced to me the Samsas I get to eat those every week. They are delicious ! Uzbek food always takes the cake

oh my gosh.. they look so delicious!!
Ah.. the ancestor of Samosas 🥲
Samosas ancestry lies in sambusaka...similar.
No Samosa's origin is Portuguese.
Love to Uzbekistan from Pakistan ❤️
Yes. It is my homeland. Wonderful Uzbekistan
@@MegaArshak there are different types of samsas. Starting from around 40cents to around 6 US$
Is it considered expensive for locals?
The one that's 40 cents isn't but 6$ samsa is quiet expensive for the locals so you cannot afford to buy it everyday. It's much bigger as well
@@Aeybiseediy not so much
@Herry Susanto Are you really serious?! No one in the world fasts like a Muslim does. I dare you to fast for at least 3 days in a row. We do it for at least 30 days every year!
Uzbekistan seems like an interesting melting pot. A lot of the people look to be a mix of various ethnicities. You have Middle Eastern + Eastern European + East Asian mixing in some of these people it looks like. Very cool.
Eastern European?
Incredible! So innovative, I hope to try soon!
Horse meat.....mmmmmmm
i wanna visit uzbekistan! everything i see from there looks amazing
I would like to build a skateboard park there, would be fun for young people to hang out there
Greeting from Kazakhstan :) I love Usbekistani food.
Man this looks really good
tried it, its freaking amazing
This looks awesome 👌
Very clean comparing to India and Pakistan 😂
They look amazing now my mouth is watering
Wow that looks delicious, Would love to try one day
This looks delicious. The one with cheese must be so good.
I need samsas in my life. Looks delicious.
The voice is instantly recognized, Claudia!
That food looks amazing.
Indeed! Looks very delicious...
Almost perished seeing a Samsas drop at 5:02
Looks delicious!
Wow those look delicious!
It is really interesting to watch videos about our country. That is really attractive video 😍
Actually we don't eat too much meat. There are a lot of food that contains so much meat. However, these kinds of big samsa are usually eaten by high income class members in Uzbekistan. Sometimes middle income class families also eat these foods for enjoy. Many people are not ready to spend 6$to this delicious meals as it costs too much. Because of inflation, spending 6$ is just like spending 60$ for us. Besides our typical somsa is little smaller. But we really like this food and buy it twice or three times a month
I heard Uzbeks eat a lot of meat, what kind of foods do the common people eat?
@@alistairdimmick2886 in statistics we eat much less than other countries
I love how Claudia says cucumbers so Italian 🥰
My god, that looks delicious, especially the ones with cheese. The large ones would do my whole family for dinner.
Узбекская кухня одна из лучших в мире. Плов, самса, шашлыки... скатайтесь один раз в Ташкент вместо Турции.
... holy crap Uzbekistan people y'all eating like gods, the food looks sooo awesomeeeeeee
That looks really delicious
beautiful!!
5:01 RIP, brave little samsa
looks scrumptious
I need to visit Uzbekistan , looks delivious.

Dough, meat, onions, spices. The four essential food groups represented 🤤
This looks lovely
Man these look delicious, some great skill on the tandoor ovens, and I love horsemeat!
As Russian who ate an astonishing amount of all the post-Soviet food - Uzbeks are only rivaled by Georgians. Samsa's are seriously life savers after long and busy days at university
God this looks so good. I just wish one plopped right into my lap right now
Msh'Allah, Samsa s looking delicious = )
The food's variety in Uzbekistan is remarkable, I'm feeling hungry already
Do u have to praise the invisible skydaddy for everything? U do that when u poop too?
Delicious 😋😋😋😋
I like how the delux is just "all the things" :)
Awesome! Looking delicious! ❤
Tasty!
We love samsa very much!
2:23 my man's got flies flying around... for all the effort that's gone in to the appearance of food sanitation, this is how to get a lot of people sick from one man's cooking!
The way she said cucumber 🥰.
Fantastisc!
Looks so good
its always amazing seeing stuff stick to the walls of a tandoor like that :P
Awesome
YOOO Let me get most of that, cause that look hella good.
Look delicious 🤤
OMG, what a delicious and healthy food!!!
Put this place on my travel list!
Delicious yes but Healthy...questionable at best.
@@Rihardololz its health, just more fat than regular food. i live in uzbekistan and its a lot healthier than burger or hot dog. u eat pure meat inside bread
@@cntnk55 Red meat is not healthy despite how pure it is, i still would eat it but in moderation.
Love somsa, it is considered as a fast food in our region
I want to try some.
Yum, I'm glad this series and Claudia are back.

@@jasonvoorhees5640 Not all of them, it depends on what you prefer. It's like saying all the pizza has pineapple just because one recipe does.
so good
