Directions
Mix the flour with enough cold water to make a fairly stiff dough.
Knead it well and roll small pieces into thin rounds, about 3 1/2 inches in diameter.
Mix meat, onion, garlic, soy sauce, ginger and salt together.
Put a teaspoon of meat mixture in each little pancake and fold over.
Pinch, flute or pleat the edges together so the momo looks like a half-moon or is round shaped.
Lightly coat a bamboo or metal steamer with vegetable spray and arrange momo so they do not touch.
Cover and steam over boiling water for l0-15 minutes.
Momo also can be cooked in broth and served as a soup or fried.
This recipe will work well with beef, lamb, pork or chicken, all of which are traditional for momo.
