Here is the recipe as requested by my friends Priyanka and Priya.

Ingredients for Vegetable Momos
Maida – 200 gm (2 small bowls)
 oil – 1 tablespoon
Baking powder – 1/5 small spoon
Salt – as per taste

Method
Take out the flour in a bowl. Mix salt and oil and knead soft dough with water. Leave the dough covered for half an hour.
Till then let's make the Filling

Ingredients for filling
Capsicum – 2
Cabbage – 1 small bowl (finely cut)
Cauliflower – 1 small bowl (finely cut)
Carrots – 2 (grated)
Green peas – half small bowl
Cottage Cheese – 100 gm
Ghee or oil – 1 tablespoon
Black pepper - ¼ spoon
Red pepper – 1 pinch
Coriander – half small bowl (finely cut)
Salt – as per taste
(as per taste you can also use onion or garlic)

Method:
Put the oil in a frying pan and heat it. Add the cut vegetables to the hot ghee.
 Mix black pepper, red chili, salt and coriander and fry for 2 minutes while stirring.
Now crush the paneer into coarse powder and mix in the frying pan. Fry for another 1 to 2 minutes.
The filling for the momos is ready (If you also want onion or garlic then fry them before adding the vegetables).
Take out a small lump from the dough, shape it like a ball and flatten it with roller into a disk like shape with 3 inches diameter.
Put filling in the center of the flattened dough and by folding from all the corners or half moon shape .
Like this prepare the entire dough into filled pieces.
Now we have to cook the momos in steamer.

Fill 1/3 of the bottom most utensil with water and heat it.
Put the momos in the steamer. About 12 to 14 momos will fit in one utensil. Cook in the steam for 10 minutes. When momos become translucent they are cooked.


The momos are ready, take them out in a plate. If you have more momos then repeat the above step.
The delicious Vegetable Momos are now ready to serve and eat along with red chili sauce or onion soup.
If you want you can marinate the cooked momos in tandoori masala and grill them...tandoori momos are ready serve with green chutney.


Thanks.
