How To Make Veg Momos 

momos are also called dim dim

For ease of understanding, I have divided this post into 4 main parts.

• Step 1 – making outer cover of dim sum
• Step 2 – making dim sum stuffing
• Step 3 – shaping the dim sum
• Step 4 – steaming the dim sum

Lets begin with step 1 – Preparing the outer cover of momos

1st . Take the all purpose flour, salt and oil in a bowl and mix it.

2nd. add water in parts and begin to knead to a firm dough.

3rd. cover the dough and keep aside for 30 minutes.

Making Veg Momo Stuffing

4. finely chop all the vegetables. You can also use a food processor to finely chop the vegetables.

. Heat oil in a thick bottomed pan heat. Add garlic. Saute for 2-3 seconds.

6. add onions. Stir and saute for 10-15 seconds.

7. add all the finely chopped vegetables.

8. increase the flame and stir fry the vegetables on a medium to high flame. If you have not used a thick bottomed pan, then saute the veggies on a low to medium flame. Saute or stir fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Then add soy sauce, salt and pepper.

9. continue to stir fry on a medium to high flame for 2 to 3 minutes more. Switch off the flame and add 1 to 2 tbsp of the spring onions greens. Mix well. Check the taste and add more salt, pepper or soy sauce, if required.

10. The vegetable stuffing is ready. Let the stuffing cool completely.

Shaping The Veg Momos – 1st Method

11. divide the dough in two parts.

12. make a 6-7 inch log from each part. cut the log into equal slices.

13. make ball of each slice and keep them covered with a moist napkin.

14. take each dough ball and on a lightly dusted board, roll each dough ball into a thin circle of about 2-3 inch diameter.

15. The edges have to be thin and center have to be thick.

16. Apply water with your finger tip or with a small pastry brush towards the circumference. This is an optional step.

17. place 1 or 2 tsp of vegetable stuffing in the center.

18. Lift one side of the edge and start pleating. (you can also refer to the video above to see how pleating is done).

19. Pleating the momos.

20. Join all the pleats in the center.

21. A pleated and shaped momo

Shaping The Veg Momos – 2nd Method

22. Another simple technique to shape momos – join the edges

23. This is an easy method. The momo is shaped like gujiya or karanji. You can stop here or can proceed to the next step.

24. Bring both the end together and join.

25. Prepare all momos this way and keep them covered under a moist napkin. till you are ready to steam them.

Steaming Veg Momos

26. Grease a steamer pan with oil.

27. Arrange them in the pan, keeping space between them.

28. Steam them in an electric cooker or a steamer pan. You can also use idli pans or pressure cooker to steam. (check recipe notes below in recipe card)

29. Steam them for 5 to 6 minutes till the outer cover becomes transparent. Don’t overcook as then the outer cover, becomes dense and chewy. The steaming time may vary upon the thickness of momos’ cover.

When you touch the momo then dough should not feel sticky to you. This means they are done and the momos will have a transparent look.

30. Serve veg momos hot with momos chutney or red chilli-garlic chutney, spicy schezwan sauce or tomato sauce. They also go best with a spicy sauce and should be eaten hot.
