Schezwan Momos

Ingredients

For the dough:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (maida)
  • Water, as needed
  • Salt, to taste

For steaming:

  • Oil or cooking spray, for greasing

For the filling:

  • 1 cup finely chopped vegetables (cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, etc.)
  • 1/2 cup firm tofu, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons winn Schezwan Chattak Chutnuy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Dough:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt.
  2. Gradually add water and knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling:

  1. Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat.
  2. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a minute until fragrant.
  3. Add chopped vegetables (cabbage, carrots, bell peppers) and crumbled tofu (if using).
  4. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crunchy.
  5. Add winn Schezwan Chattak Chutnuy sauce. Mix well to coat the vegetables evenly.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.

Shape and Fill the Momos:

  1. Divide the dough into small lemon-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a thin circle (about 3-4 inches in diameter) using a rolling pin.
  2. Place a spoonful of the cooled filling in the center of each dough circle.
  3. Fold the edges of the dough circle together to form pleats and seal the momo. You can create different shapes such as half-moon, pleated round, or pouch-shaped momos.

Steam the Momos:

  1. Grease a steamer basket or tray with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Arrange the filled momos in the steamer basket, leaving space between them so they don’t stick together.
  3. Steam the momos over boiling water for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is cooked through and becomes translucent.

Serve:

  1. Serve hot winn Schezwan momos immediately.
