MOMOS (TIBETAN STEAMED DUMPLINGS)
These are really good. The kid's love having them as a snack. I usually serve with an assortment of fruit as well as dipping sauces such as Sriracha or soy. The kid's like hoisin too. And sometimes Tsal, a mild salsa. Posted for Zaar World Tour 05

Steps:
- 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).
MOMOS - TIBETIAN STEAMED DUMPLINGS
When I was at Uni I shared with a number of other students, one of them a Tibetan guy who for the 5 years was terribly home sick. He would make all the foods he missed including homemade beer (a Tibetan tradition apparently) and then invite friends around. There is a very intricate way to seal the momos or you can go the easy path and just fold in half. The traditional way is to draw up 4 points around the circular dough and seal leaving a hole in the middle. When cooked you pour some sauce in the hole.

Steps:
- To make the dough, tip the flour and a pinch of salt into a bowl. Add the oil to the flour and combine well with your hands. Slowly add 100ml water and knead the dough until it is stretchy. Cover with cling film and leave the dough to rest.
- Tip all the filling ingredients into a bowl and season with salt. Use your hands to combine thoroughly.
- Divide the dough into 20 balls (each should weigh about 15g). Dust your work surface with flour and roll the balls into thin circles using a rolling pin.
- Spoon about 1 tsp filling in the centre of one circle, then use your thumb and forefinger to pinch together an edge of the dough into a fold.
- Continue to pinch along the edge of the circle and work your way all the way round.
- Bring all the pinched edges of the circle together to cover the filling and twist the top to seal it. Repeat with the rest of the dough and filling.
- Fill a bamboo steamer with water, layer the base with baking parchment and pierce some holes in it.
- Working in two to three batches, place the momos on the baking parchment and steam for 10 mins. They should look transparent and not feel sticky when fully cooked. Keep warm while you steam the rest.
- While the momos are steaming, mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl with 2 tbsp water. Serve the hot momos with the sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- Mix the all-purpose flour and the water very well by hand and knead until you make a smooth ball of dough.
- Knead the dough very well until the dough is quite flexible (about 5 minutes).
- Leave your dough in the bowl, covered, or in a plastic bag while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. You should not let the dough dry out or it will be hard to work with.
- Chop the onion, garlic, ginger, cilantro, bok choy, green onions, and mushrooms into very, very small pieces.
- Pre-cook the tofu and mushrooms, with the goal of cooking the water out of them. To do this, heat ¼ cup of cooking oil in a pan on high. Add chopped tofu and cook on medium-high for 2 minutes, until the edges are brown. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook another 3-4 minutes on medium high.
- Cool the mushrooms and tofu then mix very well with the other filling ingredients (if the mushrooms and tofu are not cooled, the green of the other vegetables will not come out correctly).
- Place the dough on a chopping board and use a rolling pin to roll it out quite thin, about ⅛ inch thick. It should not be so thin that you can see through it when you pick it up.
- After you have rolled out the dough, you will need to cut it into little circles for each momo.
- Method 1: The easiest way to do this is to turn a small cup or glass upside-down to cut out circles about the side of the palm of your hand. We use a cup 3 and ⅓ inches in diameter. That way, you don't have to worry about making good circles of dough, because each one will be the same size and shape. If you make circles this way, you may want to thin the edges of the circle a little bit before adding the filling by pinching your way around the edge of the circle. The idea is to make the edges thinner so that when you fold the dough there won't be a giant glob of dough in the folded places.
- Method 2: Of course, you can also make the circles by the more difficult traditional way. For this, first pinch off a small ball of dough. Next, use your palm to flatten out the ball. Then, flatten out the dough into a circle with a polling pin, making the edges more thin than the middle. This method is much harder to do and takes more time, though many Tibetans still use this method. In this case, the edges are pre-thinned so there is no need to thin them anymore.
- Now that you have a small, flat, circular piece of dough, you are ready to add the filling and make the mom shapes. These are many different choices for mom shapes, but for these veggie momos we will use a very common and pretty half-moon shape. This is one of the easier shapes to make.
- For this style, you begin by holding the flat circular dough in your left hand and putting about a tablespoon of veggie filling in the middle of the dough. It can be challenging if you put too much, so at first you may want to start with a little less filling.
- Beginning anywhere on the circle, pinch the edge of the dough together. Now you will fold in a small piece of dough from the "top" edge of the circle and pinch it down against the "bottom" edge of the circle. (Where the "bottom" half of the circle is the half facing you when the mom is in your hand.) The "bottom" edge of the circle-the edge nearest you-stays relatively flat and doesn't get folded. All the folding happens only on one side of the momo. Continue folding and pitching from the starting point, moving along the edge until you reach the other tip of the half-moon. The important point is to close all the openings well so that you don't lose the juice while cooking.
- As you are making your momos, you will need to have a nonstick surface and a damp cloth or lid handy to keep the momos you've made from drying out while you're finishing the others. You can lay the momos in the lightly greased trays of your steamer and keep the lid on them, or you can lay them on wax paper and cover them with the damp cloth.
- Boil water in a large steamer. (Tibetans often use a double-decker steamer to make many momos at one time.)
- Oil the steamer surface lightly before putting the momos in, so they won't stick to the metal. (We use spray oil.)
- Place the momos a little distance apart in the steamer and they will expand a little bit when they cook. They should not be touching.
- Add the momos after the water is boiling.
- With the water boiling on high heat, steam the momos for 10-12 minutes.
- As long as the dough is cooked, they are done, as the veggie filling hardly needs to cook more.
- Serve the momos right off the stove with the dipping sauce of your choice. At home, we mix together soy sauce and Patak's Lime Relish, which we get in Indian stores or the Asian section of supermarkets.
TIBETAN MOMO (A DIM SUM DUMPLING FROM TIBET)
Love dim sum, dumplings of all types and momo is excellent. Found the recipes at recipecottage after watching restaurant makeover and Chef Lynn's reaction to it. I actually use bison because of its leanness since i cannot find yak. Simple flavors but that is why it is important to use enough ginger and garlic. Test the momo by dropping a mini pea size ball into the oil and correct seasonings if needed. I like a strong ginger flavor. Will post ingredients for Sherpa Momo and Nepalese under directions as well, same dough and methods as the Tibetan. Go crazy and use vegetarian or whatever you like, but I think the first one is the best to try and get the authentic Tibetan taste to build on. If you want a dipping sauce with them, this seems like a good one: Recipe #245575 final serving amounts are guesstimates, depends on the size you make them.

Steps:
- Dough: In a large bowl combine flour, oil, salt and water.
- Mix well, knead until the dough becomes homogeneous in texture, about 8-10 minute.
- Cover and let stand for at least 30 minute.
- Knead well again before making wrappers.
- Filling: In a large bowl combine all filling ingredients.
- Mix well, adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow all ingredients to impart their unique flavors.
- This also improves the consistency of the filling.
- Assembly:.
- Give the dough a final knead.
- Prepare 1-in. dough balls.
- Take a ball, roll between your palms to spherical shape.
- Dust working board with dry flour.
- On the board gently flatten the ball with your palm to about 2-in circle.
- Make a few semi-flattened circles, cover with a bowl.
- Use a rolling pin to roll out each flattened circle into a wrapper.
- For well executed MOMO's, it is essential that the middle portion of the wrapper be slightly thicker than the edges to ensure the structural integrity of dumplings during packing and steaming.
- Hold the edges of the semi-flattened dough with one hand and with the other hand begin rolling the edges of the dough out, swirling a bit at a time.
- Continue until the wrapper attains 3-in diameter circular shape.
- Repeat with the remaining semi-flattened dough circles.
- Cover with bowl to prevent from drying.
- For packing hold wrapper on one palm, put one tablespoon of filling mixture and with the other hand bring all edges together to the center, making the pleats.
- Pinch and twist the pleats to ensure the absolute closure of the stuffed dumpling.
- This holds the key to good tasting, juicy dumplings.
- Heat up a steamer, oil the steamer rack well.
- This is critical because it will prevent dumplings from sticking.
- Arrange uncooked dumplings in the steamer.
- Close the lid, and allow steaming until the dumplings are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Take dumplings off the steamer and serve immediately.
- Alternatively, you can place uncooked dumplings directly in slightly salted boiling water and cook until done, approximately 10 minutes. Be careful not to over boil the dumplings.
- You may also slightly sauté cooked dumplings in butter before serving.
- To serve, arrange the cooked dumplings (MOMO's) on serving plate with hot tomato achar or any other chutneys as condiment.
