Chicken Momo


Chicken Momo

Chicken Momo is a type of steamed dumpling with some form of filling. There are typically two types of momo, steamed and fried. Momo is usually served with a dipping sauce, normally made with tomato as the base ingredient.

Ingredients 

250 gm Refined Flour
250 gm Boiled Chicken
2 tablespoon Green Coriande
Salt: To taste
Pepper: For Seasoning as per taste
Water: 1 glass (as needed)
Method 
  1. Boil/Steam the chicken (I used 1 chicken breast) in a pressure cooker or rice cooker for a single vessel or 15 min.
  2. Take a bowl and make a medium soft dough of the refined flour to which a pinch of salt is added, and keep the bowl covered.
  3. Shred the boiled chicken, add salt and pepper as per taste and the chopped green coriander. This will be our Momos filling.
  4. Divide the dough into small balls and roll out thin circular puris. Spoon the chicken filling  on the puri, and then  bring together and close all the ends giving a twist before sealing at the top. 
  5. Remove the excess dough at the top end. We can give any shape to the dumplings
  6. Brush the steamer basket with oil before putting the momos for steaming, this prevents them from sticking to one another or to the basket, and we can easily remove them without the filling falling over from torn momos.
  7. Steam the momos for 10 minutes, until the flour cover becomes shiny.
  8. Serve them hot with a dip of choice.
