Dough

Dipping Sauce

Method

Dough Preparation

1

Make the Dough

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and vegetable oil, mixing until a dough forms.

2

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

3

Cook the Filling

In a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and sauté the onions until translucent. Add minced garlic and ground meat, cooking until the meat is browned.

4

Season the Filling

Stir in soy sauce, black pepper, grated carrot, and chopped green onions. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Assembling and Cooking

5

Roll Out the Dough

Once the dough has rested, divide it into small balls. Roll each ball out on a floured surface into a thin circle.

6

Fill the Dough

Place a tablespoon of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over and seal the edges by pressing them together. You can crimp the edges for decoration.

7

Cook the Mo

Heat a pan over medium heat and add a little oil. Place the filled Mo in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

Dipping Sauce Preparation

8

Prepare the Dipping Sauce

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and chili flakes. Stir well and set aside.
