A woman that I work with uses egg roll wrappers for quick mini samosas, but I like this idea too.

oh man, I had SIX yesterday (they are pretty tiny, but still) mmmm

you can make these as big or small as you want.
egg roll wrappers hmmmm I like it!

That sounds yummy!

You can also stuff them with kheema.  That's just ground beef or lamb, chopped onions, maybe some peas and/or potatoes, and Indian spices including cumin, coriander, and cayenne.

Pizza dough, hmm... would the wrap be a bit thick? 

[TheCraftyCat]

I guess you'd roll it out really thin... but I think egg roll wrappers might be a better choice.  I have a recipe for proper samosa wrappers, but it looks like a LOT of work.

I want samosas so bad right now, but all the stores are closed, and I dont have ANY of the stuff. of course

Yeah you kind of have to roll the dough thin and its still not flaky like at the restaurant, but the real recipe is a little involved.
These are like quicky samosas.
I hadn't thought of egg roll wrappers they would probably work best.
I kind of threw this recipe together with stuff I had in the fridge and the pizza dough was going to reach its end soon, so thats what I used, it turned out really good!
