How to make Momo, Soup and Chutney

Chutney

Step 1

Add all the ingredients in a grinder and grind to make a paste and the chutney is ready. Set aside the chutney for serving.

Momo and Soup

Step 1

For the momo mixture, add minced meat, finely chopped onions, finely chopped coriander leaves, minced ginger, minced garlic, turmeric powder, finely chopped green chilies, vegetable oil and salt in a bowl. Mix the ingredients properly and let the mixture marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Make soft dough from maida and water. Make round wrappers for filling the mixture into it. Make as many required.

Step 3

For the soup, pressure cook the meat in a small quantity of water and then add the contents of the cooker into the base container of the steamer with water, meat, chopped tomatoes and chopped onion.

Step 4

Spread oil in the inside of the holed baking containers so the momos don’t stick to it.

Step 5

Start filling the mixture into the wrappers. Fill 1 tablespoon mixture into the wrapper and then bring the sides together and make pleats into a round shape and in the end press them together to close the opening. Fill the baking containers with the filled wrappers.

Step 6

Once the baking containers are full with the filled wrappers place them on top of the base container of the steamer. Put on the flame and place the steamer on the stove and steam the momos till they become tender.

Step 7

Once momos are ready serve them hot with chutney and soup.
Soya sauce, vinegar and salt should be provided to add in the soup for taste.
