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.
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.
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
@@thehumanoid6543 india as a concept did not exist before the late 19th century the different kingdoms were like different countries, and the people within those kingdoms didnt think of themselves as "Indian citizens" as a whole Yes the name India is very old, it was given by the Greeks long ago to describe the AREA of the SUBCONTINENT NEAR INDUS RIVER, not a country
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.
@@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.
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!
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
@@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.

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

@@ranjanbiswas3233 😂😂😂 Babur The founder of Mughal empire brought this from his homeland Tandoor or Samosa or pulao /Biryani No Portuguese or Europeans have these things
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

Yes 😅
Nope just a low testosterone thing
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
