Ingredients

• 200 grams All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 120 milliliters Water
• 150 grams Paneer
• 100 grams Cabbage
• 1 medium Carrot
• 0.5 medium Capsicum
• 1 inch piece Ginger
• 1 small Green chili
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
• 1 teaspoon Oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Grate the paneer finely and place it in a bowl.

Step 3

Finely grate the cabbage, carrot, and capsicum, and add them to the paneer.

Step 4

Mince the ginger and green chili, and add them to the vegetable and paneer mixture.

Step 5

Stir in soy sauce, black pepper, and chopped coriander leaves. Mix well to combine all ingredients. This is your momo filling.

Step 6

Divide the resting dough into small equal-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a thin disc using a rolling pin.

Step 7

Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each disc. Fold and pleat the edges together to seal the momo tightly.

Step 8

Brush a steamer with a little oil to prevent sticking, and arrange momos in the steamer basket with space in between.

Step 9

Steam the momos for about 10-12 minutes or until the outer covering becomes slightly transparent.

Step 10

Serve the low-fat paneer momos hot, alongside your favorite dipping sauce.
