However, if you want to make traditional Punjabi-style Samosas at home, you can use the above list of ingredients. For readymade sheets, though, you just have to prepare the potato masala mixture separately. Here, you don't have to prepare the dough, as the sheets are good enough to avoid all those efforts.
