For the Dough
 ½ cup Whole Wheat Flour/ Rice Flour
 ½ tsp Oil
 ½ tsp Salt
 2 tbsp Milk & Water for Kneading
For Filling
 1 cup Grated Cabbage
 1 cup Grated Carrots
 4 tbsp Chopped Capsicum
 1 tbsp Chopped Spring Onion
 2 tbsp Ginger Garlic Paste
 ¼ cup Sprouted Beans
 1 tsp Salt
 1 tsp Green Chilli Paste
 1 tsp Black Pepper

For Making the Dough
1

Combine wheat/rice flour, salt, and oil in a mixing bowl. Mix well. Add milk and mix well again.

2

Now add enough water to make a smooth dough, just like the chapati dough. Cover it and let it rest for 30 Minutes

For Filling
3

Add shredded cabbage to a bowl. Add salt and mix well. Squeeze out the excess water. (You can use this nutritious water for kneading chapati dough)

4

Add shredded carrots, bell pepper, spring onion greens and mix well. Now add the ginger-garlic paste, salt, and mix well. Add black pepper and mix well again. Stuffing is ready.

For Making Momos
5

Divide dough into 14-15 equal-sized balls. Dust them with some dry flour.

6

Roll each dough ball thin into about 3″ circle, or until almost translucent. The edges should be thin. Roll all the balls.

7

Wet the edge with some water. Place about 1 tbsp filling in the center. Bring one edge and start pleating and twist to seal the dumpling. Stuff the rest of the dough balls in the same way.

8

Heat water in a steamer. Arrange the momos on the steaming basket and steam for about 10 Minutes

9

Serve hot it with chutney.
