Which country does the word samosa come from?

According to the Food Lover's Companion, samosas are "fried, triangular pastries that may be filled with vegetables or meat or a combination of both."

The samosa is of Indian origin; therefore the country where you're likely to be served one is... in India. In addition, samosas are also very popular in South Africa, which has a large Indian population.
