Momos (Tibetan Steamed Dumplings)
- DOUGH
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- MEAT FILLING
- 1 lb extra lean ground beef
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1/2 1/2 lb spinach (chopped fine or shredded) or 1/2 lb cabbage (chopped fine or shredded)
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 green onions, chopped (use all of it minus the roots)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 pinch salt
- Tsal
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- cilantro
- green onion
- garlic
- Mix flour and the water; knead and form into a ball. Sometimes I like to add extra spices to the dough so it's not so bland.
- Let rest covered with a wet towel or plastic wrap for 30 minute.
- Combine the filling.
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
- Cut dough into 12 - 18 pieces and roll into small flat circles.
- Place a spoonful of filling on each dough circle, folding over and crimping to seal.
- Place momos in a steamer and steam on high for 30 minute.
- To make the Tsal, just combine the ingredients in the amount needed.
- I've never measured, just thrown the stuff together, so I have no exact measurements for all of it. For the tomatoes, I always Use Hunts Diced Tomatoes with Sweet Onions. (I'm lazy :D).
