About Open momo

Open Momo is a variation of traditional momos, a popular dumpling dish from Himalayan regions like Nepal and Tibet. This version is made without a top seal, exposing the flavorful filling. Typically crafted with a wheat-based dough, Open Momos are filled with a mixture of minced meat, such as chicken or pork, or vegetarian options like cabbage, carrots, and spices. Steamed to preserve nutrients, they are a low-fat cooking choice compared to fried alternatives. Rich in protein from the filling and carbohydrates from the dough, Open Momos provide energy and are relatively light. However, sodium levels can be high depending on seasonings or accompanying dips, like spicy chutneys. For healthier options, whole-grain flour and lean fillings can enhance nutritional value. As a fun open-faced twist on a beloved dish, Open Momos strike a balance between indulgence and mindful eating.
