About Steamed chicken momo

Steamed Chicken Momo is a popular dish originating from Himalayan cuisine, particularly Nepal, Tibet, and parts of India. These bite-sized dumplings are made of thinly rolled dough filled with a mixture of minced chicken, onions, garlic, ginger, and flavorful spices. The preparation involves steaming, which minimizes added fat and retains the nutrients in the filling. Chicken Momos are a good source of protein due to the lean chicken, making them suitable for muscle health and repair. The inclusion of garlic and ginger may offer anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the carbohydrate content from the dough and sodium levels in the filling should be considered for balanced consumption. Typically served with tangy chili sauce, they present a delicious yet light option for a meal or snack. Opting for steamed rather than fried Momos further enhances their health appeal, providing a satisfying dish with less fat and calories.
