Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic, minced ginger, and chopped green chili. Sauté for a minute.

Step 3

Add finely chopped onions and sauté until translucent.

Step 4

Add minced chicken or pork to the pan and cook until browned and cooked through.

Step 5

Stir in finely chopped cabbage and cook for another 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.

Step 6

Season the filling with soy sauce, salt, and chopped spring onions. Mix well and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Step 7

After the dough has rested, divide it into small equal-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a thin circle on a lightly floured surface.

Step 8

Place a spoonful of the meat filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the edges together to seal and shape the momos as desired.

Step 9

Prepare a steamer and line it with parchment paper or cabbage leaves to prevent sticking. Arrange the momos in the steamer basket, leaving some space between each.

Step 10

Steam the momos for 10-12 minutes until the dough is cooked through and the filling is tender.

Step 11

Once done, remove the momos from the steamer and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
