Recipe:

Step 1: Take some vegetables, chop them finely and keep them aside. Add ¾ cup of maida and one cup teaspoon oil in a large bowl. Now, mix all the ingredients to prepare a soft dough. Cover the dough and keep it aside for about 20-25 minutes. Now take a pan and heat it on a gas stove. Add chopped vegetables and stir-fry them. Add salt and pepper and saute until they turn a little brownish. Add chilli sauce and soy sauce for taste. Mix well and turn off the gas.

Step 2: Knead the dough once again for a minute and make small round balls out of it. Place the round ball on a pressing board, roll it from the sides, and keep the centre portion a little thick compared to the sides.

Step 3: Place a tablespoon of vegetable filling onto the flattened dough. Now, lift its edge from one side and start pleating. Join them at the centre to seal it. Prepare momos in a similar way to the rest of the dough.

Step 4: Now, grease a steaming plate with oil to prevent sticking. Arrange momos on the steaming plate and steam the momos for about 6-7 minutes over medium flame.

Step 5: Transfer the momos to a serving plate and serve with spicy momos chutney.
