Method
Dough Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while mixing with your hand or a spoon until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Filling Preparation
- 2
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped cabbage, grated carrot, green peas, chopped green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Assemble the Mo:Mo
After the dough has rested, divide it into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Roll each ball into a thin circle (about 3-4 inches in diameter). Place a spoonful of the vegetable filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, creating a half-moon shape. Ensure they are tightly sealed to avoid leakage during frying.
Frying
- 4
Fry the Mo:Mo
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the prepared Mo:Mo in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.
