Start by chopping various vegetables including bell peppers and carrots finely.

3

Add 1 tsp Kashmiri red chili powder, 1 tsp black pepper, and 2 chicken cubes to the chicken mixture.

4

Heat 2-3 tbsp oil in a large pan over high heat.

Once the oil is hot, add the ground chicken and fry it until it releases water.

6

Continue frying the chicken until all the water evaporates, about 4-5 minutes.

Add the chopped cabbage, bell peppers, and carrot to the pan and mix well.

8

Cook the mixture for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crunchy.

Add 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp chili vinegar, and 1 tbsp dark soy sauce to the mixture and stir well.

Let the filling cool down before using it for the momos.

Gradually add water and knead the dough until it is smooth and pliable.

Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into thin circles.

15

Place a spoonful of the chicken and vegetable filling in the center of each circle.

Fold the dough over the filling and pinch to seal the dumpling.

Steam the momos in a bamboo steamer for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
