momos (Tibetan Dish)

Ingredients
Dough
500 g Flour (maida)
Filling
500 g cabbage/chicken/pork
500 g onions
250 g butter (if veg momo)
1/2 tsp garlic& ginger paste
coriander leaves for extra flavor (optional)
salt to taste

Chutney
4 tomatoes
coriander leaves/garlic
green chillies/red chillies

To prepare the dough, just add water & knead into a firm dough of rolling consistency.

To prepare the filling, mince cabbage/chicken/pork & onions finely. Mix both of these. Add ginger garlic paste, butter(for veg momo) & salt & mix it well. Add chopped coriander leaves if u want.

To prepare the chutney, boil tomatoes just enough to take out the peel. Put tomatoes, chillies & coriander /garlic & salt & make a paste in a mixture.

Now make small balls out of the prepared dough. Roll the balls into small chapatis. Take small amount of filling & put it on the chapati, fold it & press both the sides of chapati as shown in the picture.

Put the momos in a steamer . Keep it till they are cooked. When you touch the momos with your hand & if they are not sticky , that means they are done. It generally takes 15/20 min for veg momos & 40/45 min for non veg. Serve hot with chutney & hot soup.

You can relish this dish during winter & monsoons.
