Vegetable dumplings / Momos

My second try on momos. A healthy vegetable recipe savoured as a snack or a meal. Here I am sharing  the recipe ..


Ingredients --

For momos wrapper :

All purpose flour ( Maida ) - 250gm
Salt- to taste
Water - For kneading

For filling :

Cabbage -  100gm shredded
Onions - 200gm Chopped coarsely
Carrot -2nos. chopped
Garlic - 10 flakes chopped
Salt - to taste
Soya sauce - 1/2 tsp.
Ajinomoto - 1/2 tsp.
Black pepper grounded - to taste

Method :

• Mix flour and salt, knead hard dough using less water and keep aside for half an hour.
• Keep a pan on gas stove, add few drops of oil and once hot add chopped garlic and onions.
• Saute for few seconds only ( don't cook ), add ajinomoto, carrot.
• After a minute add cabbage, salt to taste, soya sauce and black pepper.
• Saute for few seconds and put the flame off. The filling is ready.

Now ,

I make big rolls of the dough, and then I cut circular rounds out of that.

Make dough balls and roll each ball with the help of rolling pin. Cut rounds out of it for momo wrapper as per the required size.

Take one round on your palm and put one tablespoon filling in the centre.

Now fold the sides as in the picture

Once all momos are made, place them in a steam cooker.

After 15 minutes, take momos out of the steam cooker and serve with garlic and red chillies chutney.
