How to Make Delicious Fried Momos with This Easy-to-Follow Recipe Guide

Introduction:

If you're a fan of Asian cuisine, you've probably heard of momos – those delectable dumplings filled with a savory mixture of chicken  or vegetables. While steamed momos are delicious, there's something irresistibly satisfying about biting into a perfectly crispy fried momo. In this blog post, we'll walk you through the step-by-step process of making fried momos that will surely impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

To get started, gather the following ingredients:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 cup water

- 250 grams ground chicken or vegetables (your choice)

- 1 small onion, finely chopped

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1-inch piece ginger, grated

- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 tablespoon oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and water. Knead until the dough becomes smooth and pliable. Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

2. Make the Filling:

In a separate bowl, mix together the ground chicken or vegetables, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, oil, salt, and pepper. Ensure that all the ingredients are well combined.

3. Shape the Momos:

Divide the rested dough into small balls approximately an inch in diameter. Roll each ball into a thin circle using a rolling pin. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle.

4. Fold and Seal:

Fold the circle in half to create a semicircle shape. Pinch and pleat the edges together to seal the momo. Repeat this process until all dough balls are used.

5. Fry the Momos:

Heat oil in a deep frying pan or a wok. Make sure there is enough oil to submerge the momos. Once the oil is hot, carefully drop a few momos into the pan, ensuring they don't touch each other. Fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

Remove the fried momos from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as spicy tomato chutney or soy sauce
