For the momo wrapper
- 1 cup all purpose flour / maida
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- salt and water warm to make a stiff dough
For the chicken filling
- 1 cup chicken minced
- 2 onions finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp pepper powder (we used white )
- 1/2 tbsp garlic paste
- 1 tsp vinegar
- to taste salt
- cabbage Note: To make a veg filling, replace mince with shredded chicken with cabbage
For the chutney
- 1/2 cup corainder leaves
- 3 - 4 green chillies
- 1 tsp vinegar
- 1/2 tsp soya sauce
For the soup
- 200 gms chicken soup bones
- 2 cups water
- handful coriander leaves
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- to taste salt
In a bowl mix all the ingredients of the chicken for the filling. Keep aside to rest till you make your dough.
Knead the maida, baking powder and salt together into a stiff dough. It has to be tougher than roti dough. Cover and keep aside for 30 minutes.
Now make small balls of the dough and roll into very thin 4-5 inch rounds.
Take each round piece and place some filling in the center, bring the edges together and begin to seal in a twist and fold manner. With each sealing put the two ends together and fold them moving to the end of the round this way.
Steam in a steamer for about 10 minutes and serve hot with sauce and soup.
