Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup chopped vegetables or ground meat (e.g. cabbage, carrots, onions, chicken)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Gradually add the water, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the vegetables or ground meat, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and vegetable oil. Set aside.

  3. Roll out the dough into thin circles, about 3-4 inches in diameter. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle.

  4. To shape the momos, pinch the edges of the circle together at the top, making small folds as you go around. Make sure to seal the edges well.

  5. Steam the momos in a steamer basket or on a greased plate in a steamer for 10-15 minutes, or until the dough becomes translucent and the filling is cooked through.

  6. Serve the momos hot with a spicy dipping sauce.

Enjoy your homemade momos!
