Momos aren’t simply popular among Delhi residents; in fact, most of us swear by them. Despite the plethora of street food alternatives available, momos are the one food that can be found in every nook and cranny of the city and is enjoyed by everyone.

Momos originated in Tibet and are now popular in both India and the rest of the world. They’re little packed pockets that come in a variety of shapes and are filled with vegetables or poultry. It’s one of the best choices for a light but satisfying lunch. There are many various sorts of momos to sample, ranging from conventional steam momos to tandoori momos to pan-fried momos and even wheat momos for the health-conscious ones!

As tasty as they are, they are still easier to make. Let us try to make and enjoy the simmering classic chicken steam momos at home as the monsoon season approaches.

Ingredients :

All-purpose flour – 450 grams

Chicken – boiled and shredded – 300 grams

Refined oil – 1 tablespoon

Salt – as per requirement

2 Onions

A small piece of ginger

Chilly garlic paste – 1 tablespoon

Soy sauce – 2 teaspoon

Recipe :

To begin, boil the chicken with a bit of salt and pepper. After the chicken has been boiled, let it cool before shredding it into smaller pieces. Wash the vegetables thoroughly, chop them, and set them aside. Add refined flour, salt, and oil to a bowl and knead thoroughly with enough water. Make sure there aren’t any lumps. Add the chicken to a separate mixing dish, followed by the chopped vegetables, and stir well to blend everything. After that, add the soy sauce to the chicken mixture well. Take the prepared dough and roll it out into little balls.

Using a rolling pin, flatten the dough balls. Make a square shape and add the filling at the center. Bring the edges tightly and give shape according to your own choice to make a momo. Place the momos in a steamer and steam for 20 minutes, or until they are soft.

Ta-daa! Your chicken momos are hot and ready to eat. You can serve it with your favorite chutney or dip.
