For a protein-rich version, replace half of the mixed vegetables with 1 cup of crumbled paneer. Sauté the paneer lightly before mixing it with the other vegetables.
For a healthier option, substitute all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour (atta). The wrappers will be slightly denser with a nuttier flavor.
After steaming, you can pan-fry or deep-fry the momos until they are golden brown and crispy for a different texture.
Add 1/2 teaspoon of red chili sauce or Sriracha to the vegetable filling for an extra kick of heat.
Packed with a variety of vegetables like cabbage, carrots, and bell peppers, these momos provide essential vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber.
Steaming is a healthy, low-fat cooking method that preserves the nutrients in the vegetables without adding extra oils or fats, making it a lighter alternative to fried snacks.
This recipe is entirely plant-based, offering a good source of nutrients from vegetables and grains, suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.
A serving of 5 steamed veg momos contains approximately 250-300 calories, depending on the specific ingredients and wrapper thickness. Frying them will significantly increase the calorie count.
Steamed veg momos can be a relatively healthy snack as they are low in fat and packed with vegetables. The use of all-purpose flour for the wrapper means they are not high in fiber. For a healthier option, use whole wheat flour for the dough.
This usually happens for two reasons: the dough was too stiff, or the momos were over-steamed. Ensure your dough is smooth and pliable, and steam them just until the wrapper becomes translucent (typically 10-12 minutes).
Yes, you can prepare the dough and filling up to a day in advance. Store them in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator. Let the dough come to room temperature for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
Store leftover momos in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, steam them for 3-4 minutes until hot. Microwaving is not recommended as it can make the wrappers rubbery.
