Fried Momo Filling and Dough
Method
Preparing the Fried Momo
- 1
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth and soft dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Make the Filling
In another bowl, mix the ground chicken, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped onion, chopped cabbage, grated carrot, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Shape the Momos
Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle (about 3 inches in diameter). Place a spoonful of the chicken filling in the center of each circle, then fold and pinch the edges to seal the momos.

Fry the Momos
In a deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the momos in batches. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
