Step By Step Instructions:
1) To make the stuffing, heat the oil in a pan on medium heat-high heat. Once hot add ginger and garlic.

2) Saute for 30 seconds. Make sure not to burn them.

3) Now add chopped veggies (onion, cabbage, carrot, capsicum).

4) Mix and continue cooking with stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes.

5) Veggies will start to soften.

6) Now add salt and pepper.

7) Again mix and cook for 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the vegetables, we do not want them mushy.

8) Now add spring onion greens and mix.

9) Also add soy sauce.

10) Stir well to combine and turn off the stove. Let the mixture cool down.

11) Meantime knead the dough for outer covering. Mix all purpose flour and salt in a bowl.

12) Add little water at a time and knead into smooth yet firm dough. Cover it and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

13) Now divide the dough into 20 equal portions and make smooth balls. Take one ball and roll into 4 inch diameter circle. Keep the edges thinner compared to center.

14) Put about a tablespoon of stuffing in the center.

15) To shape the momos, Now lift the one side of edge and start pleating and joining them together.

16) Then join all of them in the center and seal it. There you have a Potli shaped momo ready.

17) For another shape Roll one ball to 4 inch diameter circle, put stuffing in the center. For the this shape, we will keep half edge of the circle as such and rest half circle is pleated and joined to first half.

18) As you can see, keep pleating as near as possible and keep joining on other side of the circle.

19) Here it is ready.

20) Similarly shape all of them. If you do not want to spend time in shaping, you can just make half moon shape like gujiya and then combine both edges together. It looks something similar to wontons (aka flower bud or nurse cap shape).

21) Now to steam cook them, add glassful of water in a steamer pan and bring it to a simmer on medium heat. Grease the steamer tray with oil and arrange the shaped momos on it.

22) Steam them for 6-8 minutes. How to check: once cooked, it becomes transparent, shiny and by touch it won’t feel sticky. DO NOT OVERCOOK them otherwise it becomes chewy.
Now Served It
