Portuguese-speaking regions <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chamu%C3%A7as.jpg> Goan <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goan_cuisine> *chamuças*
In Goa <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goa> (India) and Portugal <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portugal>, samosas are known as *chamuças*. They are usually filled with chicken, beef, pork, lamb or vegetables, and generally served quite hot. Samosas are an integral part of Goan <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goan_cuisine> and Portuguese cuisine <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_cuisine>, where they are a common snack. A samosa-inspired snack is also very common in Brazil <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil>, and relatively common in several former Portuguese colonies in Africa <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa>, including Cape Verde <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Verde>, Guinea-Bissau <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinea-Bissau>, São Tomé and Príncipe <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A3o_Tom%C3%A9_and_Pr%C3%ADncipe>, Angola <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angola> and Mozambique <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozambique>, where they are more commonly known as *pastéis <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastel_%28food%29>* (in Brazil) or *empadas* (in Portuguese Africa; in Brazilian Portuguese, *empada* refers to a completely different snack, always baked, small in size, and in the form of an inverse pudding). They are related to the Hispanic empanada <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empanada> and to the Italian calzone <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calzone>. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samosa#Portuguese-speaking_regions https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamu%C3%A7a -- P +91-832-2409490 M 9822122436 Twitter: @fn Facebook: fredericknoronha Goa,1556 Shared Content at https://archive.org/details/goa1556
