Veg Momos (Dumplings)

PREPARATION

1. In a mixing bowl, add 200 grams all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt and 150 milliliters of water. Bring the mixture together and knead into a smooth soft dough.

2. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter in a pan. Add 1 tablespoon ginger garlic paste. Saute for a minute, add 50 grams onions, 20 grams scallion, 50 grams green beans and saute for 3 minutes.

3. Add 50 grams carrot, 150 grams cabbage and cook for 10 - 15 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and mix.

4. To make momos, dust with flour. Make a 6 - 7 inch circle from dough. Cut out each circle into a 2 or 3 diameter circle.

5. Place a tablespoon of the prepared vegetable filling in the center of each rolled out circle. Do not overstuff as it will be difficult to form a neat half moon shape.

6. Lift one side of the edge and start pleating. (see video)

7. Start folding and forming the pleats one by one. Towards the end, join the pleats in the center.

8. Heat water in a steamer. Place the momos into the steamer.

9. Steam for 5 - 6 minutes.

10. Don't overdo the steaming, as the dough becomes dense and dry.

11. Serve momos with chili sauce.
