Boil 2 cups of water and make cuts in the tomatoes. Place the tomatoes, garlic, and coriander stems in the boiling water and boil for 3-4 minutes.
Drain the water and let the ingredients cool. Remove the skin from the tomatoes and blend them with some water in a blender jar.
Heat oil in a pan, add garlic and ginger paste, and cook for 10 minutes on medium heat while stirring occasionally.
Add salt, sugar, tomato ketchup, soy sauce, and vinegar, and cook for another 2-3 minutes. The chutney is ready.
Chop or grate cabbage, onion, carrot, bell pepper, and chili. Add salt and let them rest for 10 minutes.
Drain all the water from the vegetables. Heat oil in a wok, add garlic, ginger paste, and the drained vegetables, and fry for 3-4 minutes.
Add paneer, black pepper, salt, and coriander leaves. Mix well and let the stuffing cool.
Mix flour, salt, and water in a bowl to make a soft dough. Cover it and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Take a small portion of the dough, dust it with flour, roll it out very thin, add the stuffing, and shape the momos.
Grease the momos and they are ready to be steamed or cooked as desired.
Make sure to drain all the water from the vegetables to avoid soggy stuffing.
Roll the dough as thin as possible for soft and delicate momos.
Grease the momos lightly to prevent them from sticking during steaming.
Adjust the spice level of the chutney according to your preference.
Can I use store-bought dough for momos?
Yes, you can use store-bought dough, but homemade dough gives a better texture and taste.
How long should I steam the momos?
Steam the momos for about 10-12 minutes or until they are cooked through.
Can I freeze the momos?
Yes, you can freeze uncooked momos. Place them on a tray, freeze them, and then transfer them to a container or bag.
What can I substitute for paneer in the stuffing?
You can use tofu or cottage cheese as a substitute for paneer.
Is the chutney very spicy?
The chutney is spicy, but you can adjust the spice level by reducing the amount of chili or garlic.
