In Tibet, Nepal, and Northeastern India, momos are a very common street food. In essence, they are meat-filled steamed dumplings. Vegetable-filled vegetarian and vegan versions have grown in popularity over time.
Although the vegetarian momos recipe is very straightforward and easy to prepare, there are a few suggestions and hints to improve it. First of all, I used plain flour sheets for this recipe because they contain enough gluten to work well. However, wheat flour can be used in its place to make it more palatable and healthful. Second, you are free to mix and match the vegetable stuffing according to your preferences. When using it, make sure to chop the vegetables finely. Finally, you can deep-fry these steamed momos in hot oil to expand the recipe. The crispy and tastier deep-fried momos are why I prefer them.
