In a mixing bowl, add atta and water in parts as needed to make a smooth and soft dough.
Cover the bowl with a lid and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan and add garlic. Add all the veggies and cook for a few minutes until they become slightly soft.
Add paneer and cook well. Season with salt and a pinch of black pepper powder. Keep it aside and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.
Divide the dough into small or medium-sized balls.
Sprinkle some flour on a dough ball and roll it into a thin circle, ensuring the edges are thin and the center is thick.
Apply water on the edges of the circle using your fingertip or a small pastry brush.
Place 2 tablespoons of paneer stuffing in the center. Lift one side of the edge and start pleating, forming pleats one by one. Join the pleats in the center.
Prepare all the momos this way and keep them covered under a moist napkin until ready to steam.
Grease the steamer pan well with oil and place all the prepared momos in the pan.
Steam the momos for 10 to 12 minutes, ensuring not to overdo the steaming to avoid dense and dry dough.
Ensure the dough is soft and smooth to make it easier to shape the momos.
Do not overfill the momos to prevent them from breaking while steaming.
Cover the prepared momos with a moist napkin to prevent them from drying out before steaming.
Serve the momos with a flavorful chutney for an enhanced taste.
Can I use all-purpose flour instead of wheat flour?

How do I prevent the momos from sticking to the steamer?
Grease the steamer pan well with oil before placing the momos to prevent sticking.
Can I freeze the momos for later use?

What can I serve with these momos?
Serve them with a dialysis-friendly garlic chutney or Thecha for a flavorful accompaniment.
Can I add other vegetables to the filling?
Yes, you can customize the filling with other vegetables like mushrooms or spinach for added flavor and nutrition.
