About Chicken momos

Chicken Momos are a popular dish originating from Tibetan cuisine, widely enjoyed across Nepal and parts of India. These bite-sized dumplings are made with a delicate flour-based outer shell filled with a savory mixture of minced chicken, onions, garlic, ginger, and select spices. Typically steamed, they are often served with tangy tomato-based chutneys or spicy dipping sauces. Chicken Momos are a good source of protein due to the chicken filling, and steaming as the cooking method makes them a relatively low-fat option compared to fried alternatives. However, their refined flour casing provides simple carbohydrates, which may lack nutritional density. Variations such as whole wheat Momos or vegetable-rich fillings could enhance their overall health profile. A delicious and satisfying snack, Chicken Momos balance flavor and nutrition while offering a glimpse into the rich culinary traditions of the Himalayan region.
