This is the first time I am trying veg momos. Tasted for first time as well. I had a wish to try this ever since my SIL posted this. But have been postponing trying this due to various reasons. Now since a reader requested this recipe in my recipe request page, I thought of posting it. Since this is the first time, I took some time to make this. But its quite easy. For me making a post became a pressure today, otherwise its easy. Perfect for your kids and your family. Its really delicious and I bet you wont stop eating just one. I have tried this with maida, you can also try this with wheat flour.
The stuffing I made is as the same as my spring roll stuffing, except I added chopped garlic today. Otherwise the same. Excuse the shape and size of the momos ;)

Ingredients

All purpose flour/ maida - 3/4 cup

---

Water - As needed

---

Salt - 3/4 tsp

---

Oil - 2 tsp

For stuffing

Finely chopped cabbage - 1 cup

---

Finely chopped Carrot - 1/4 cup

---

Finely chopped garlic - 1 tblsp

---

Spring onion4 – 5 sprigs

---

sugar - 1/4 tsp

---

Pepper (black) - 1/2 tsp

---

Soya sauce - 1 tsp

---

Salt - 1/2 tsp

---

Oil - 1 tblsp

Method

1. Mix flour, salt and oil  in a bowl and add water to make a smooth pliable dough. Just like our poori dough. Keep aside covered.
2. Heat a pan with oil, add garlic, and finely chopped white part of the spring onion. Give a stir in high flame. Add the chopped veggies, sugar and fry in high flame for a minute.
3. Add salt, pepper, soy sauce and mix well. Lastly add finely chopped green part of the spring onion and mix for a minute in medium flame. Switch off and keep aside.
4. I rolled the dough into a big disc and used a big lid to cut into smaller discs. After that I again roll to make it more thin. Keep some stuffing we prepared in the middle.
5. Fold it to make momo shapes. refer my video – click here. Though I have not made it perfect, it can help first timers like me :)
6. Steam it in a steamer spaced properly, for 5 minutes.

Notes

• Adding oil in the  dough gives softer outer layer.

  Serve hot with hot chilli sauce or you can try this tomato garlic dip.
