Lee's Incredible Momos

"I originally reviewed this recipe and gave it lower rating, but I did some research. I really like this recipe and I love the flavor, filling, etc., plus it's easy to make and calls for stuff you hav..." See moree around the house. BUT - when you steam them, YUCK! The wrappers look gross, and they stick together, rip apart, etc. That was what made this UNuseful to me. Maybe this little piece of information will help: when you steam these, you either need to space them apart so they are not touching, OR you need to oil the wonton wrapper (or egg roll wrappers, if you use bigger ones, like I did) so they won't stick. I am excited to try this again."

"Here is my Momo tip of the day that got rave reviews from my guest. prepare as instructed but instead of steaming get a nice large non stick skillet on medium heat with a couple Tbls of light oil like..." See more EVOO. Place the dumplings in the hot skillet large side down and cook without turning 5 minutes until brown. get a nice tight fitting lid then drizzle a couple of TBLS of water into skillet and slap the lid on let cook for another 5 min or so... Oh Man! Make a nice spicy-sweet dipping sauce and you are rockin! serve em hot! Good luck keeping up with the demand!"

"Momos are actually form Nepal. Instead of onions if you fry shallot till golden and mix it with the meat it'll taste better. Plus there is a different dipping sauce for momos fry some cut tomatoes ..." See moretill the its kinda dry ( you might want to add some water in the pot to take the tomato stuck in the pot out ) and blend it with some fresh cilantro fried garlic chilies and salt to taste. Add some sesame seeds before blending to make the sauce a bit thick so that it sticks to the momos. If you go to some indian store you can buy some spices for momo to add flavor."
