VEG MOMO WITH GARLIC CHUTNEY

I had this in my friend’s house.She prepared steamed & deep fried Momos.Both were tasting excellent.I prepared only the steamed ones . We liked it very much.There is a difference in the ingredients I've given here.Generally Momos are prepared only with Maida/All purpose flour.But I've used Wheat & Maida in 1:1 ratio. So the color of Momos are brownish & not white as we get in restaurants Tongue out .I prepared a dip /chutney as an accompaniment.It was  a nice combination.Actually i prepared idly along with momos.So this chutney tasted great for both idly & momos.I’ve given the recipe for chutney below.U can call this chutney as momo sauce too WinkPlease go through it..

MOMOS

Ingredients :

  • Wheat flour – 1/2 cup
  • Maida – 1/2 cup
  • Salt & water – as required.

For stuffing :

  • Carrot – 2 nos (Finely chopped )
  • Cabbage – 1 cup ( finely shredded / chopped )
  • Big onion – 2 nos (-d0-)
  • Garlic – 5-8 flakes (-do-)
  • Green chilly – 1-2 nos (slit cut ) (replace with chilly sauce if u r a spice lover)
  • Soya sauce – 1 tsp
  • Ajinomoto – 2 pinches (optional)
  • Salt – As required
  • Oil – 2 tbsp

Method :

  • Mix Maida , wheat flour  along with salt & water to make a soft pliable dough.Keep it aside.
  • Take a wide mouthed kadai with 2tbsp of oil and add the onions & garlic pieces.Saute for sometime.Then add the green chilly , followed by vegetables.
  • Saute well.Cover & cook for sometime.Add salt , soya sauce and Ajinomoto (optional ).Toss it well and switch off the flame.
  • Now take the dough and make small balls of even size.
  • Roll it to make a thin small poori of 4-5 inches. Remove the green chilly from the stuffing before u fill.
  • Then take a tsp of stuffing and keep it in the center of the poori.
  • Bring all the corners together and make a twist to get the shape of momos.I hope the picture gives u the clear idea.
  • Steam it in a idly pot for 10-15 mins or deep fry it !!

Serve hot with tomato sauce or Garlic chutney Smile

GARLIC CHUTNEY/MOMO SAUCE :

  • Garlic flakes – 10 nos
  • Red chilly – 4 nos ( i added only 2)
  • Vinegar –1- 2 tsp( based on the no of red chillies used)
