Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
• 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
• 0.5 cup Boiling water
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Cabbage, finely grated
• 0.5 cup Carrot, finely grated
• 0.5 cup Spring onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 tablespoon Neutral oil (for greasing the steamer)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt.

Step 2

Gradually add boiling water to the dry ingredients while stirring with a spoon. Once cool enough to handle, knead the mixture into a smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 10 minutes.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix the grated cabbage, grated carrot, chopped spring onion, minced ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Adjust salt to taste if needed.

Step 4

Divide the dough into small, equal-sized balls (about 12-15). Roll each ball into a thin circle, around 3-4 inches in diameter, between two sheets of parchment paper.

Step 5

Place a small spoonful of the vegetable filling in the center of each rolled-out dough circle. Fold and pleat the edges to seal the momo, forming your desired shape (crescent, round pouch, etc.).

Step 6

Grease a steamer tray lightly with neutral oil or place parchment paper to prevent sticking. Arrange the momos on the tray, ensuring they do not touch each other.

Step 7

Bring water to a boil in the base pot of your steamer. Place the steamer tray on top, cover, and steam for 12-15 minutes or until the dough is firm and cooked through.

Step 8

Serve the momos hot with a low-carb dipping sauce or chutney of your choice!
