Hello friend’s, welcome to my blog. Today I am going to share with you Oil Free Momo Recipe as a snacks. I hope you will enjoy this historical snacks. This recipe is dedicated for one serving. So without any further delay let’s start the recipe.
INGREDIENTS: (Per Serving)
For the Dough:
| Whole wheat flour | ½ cup |
| Salt | A pinch |
| Water (adjust as needed) | 3-4 tablespoons |
For the Filling:
| Finely chopped mixed vegetables | ½ cup |
| Crumbled paneer or tofu | 2 tablespoons |
| Small garlic clove (minced) | 1 |
| Grated ginger | ½ teaspoon |
| Finely chopped spring onion | 1 tablespoon |
| Soy sauce | ½ teaspoon |
| Black pepper | ¼ teaspoon |
| Salt | to taste |
METHOD:
-
Prepare the Dough:
-
In a small bowl, mix the flour and salt. Gradually add water, a tablespoon at a time, and knead into a soft, smooth dough. It should be firm but pliable, not sticky.
-
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
-
-
Make the Filling:
-
In a bowl, combine the chopped vegetables, crumbled paneer or tofu, minced garlic, grated ginger, spring onion (if using), soy sauce, black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
-
Mix well to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Set aside.
-
-
Shape the Momo’s:
-
Divide the rested dough into 4-5 small balls. Roll each ball into a thin, 3-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Keep the edges slightly thinner than the center.
-
Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon or round shape, pinching the edges to seal tightly. You can create pleats for a traditional look or simply press to seal.
-
-
Steam the Momo’s:
-
Prepare a steamer by bringing water to a boil in the base. Line the steamer basket with cabbage leaves or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
-
Place the momo’s in the steamer, ensuring they don’t touch each other. Steam for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is cooked and slightly translucent.
-
Carefully remove the memos and let them cool for a minute before serving.
-
-
Serve:
-
Enjoy your momo’s hot with a side of low-sodium soy sauce, chili sauce, or a homemade dip like tomato-chili chutney for extra flavor.
