Method
Dough Preparation

Mix the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead the mixture until you form a smooth and elastic dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Filling Preparation

Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped onion, minced garlic, minced ginger, green chili, chopped cilantro, soy sauce, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Roll and Fill
After the dough has rested, divide it into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). On a floured surface, roll each ball into a thin, circular wrapper. Place a spoonful of the pork filling in the center of each wrapper. Carefully fold the wrapper over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, ensuring no filling escapes.
Frying
- 4
Fry the Mo:Mo
Heat the oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the filled Mo:Mo to the oil in batches. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
