If your samosas are not freshly fried, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or an air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Heat the samosas according to package directions until golden brown and crispy, typically 8-15 minutes in an oven or 5-8 minutes in an air fryer. Alternatively, if using fresh samosas, ensure they are hot.
