🥗Healthier: sriracha

Sriracha offers a similar flavor with less sugar than some chili sauces.

Prepare the dough by mixing 1 cup flour, salt to taste, and 1-2 tablespoons oil. Knead until firm and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Grate the vegetables and squeeze out excess water to avoid sogginess.

Add 2-3 chopped green chilies, 4-5 finely chopped garlic cloves, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder, and 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce to the vegetables.

Prepare a steamer with 1 liter of water and steam the momos for 20-25 minutes on high flame.

Once steamed, let them cool for 5-10 minutes before deep frying.

Deep fry the momos until golden brown, ensuring the oil temperature is correct.

For the gravy, sauté 2 chopped onions, 4-5 cloves of garlic, and 2-3 green chilies in a pan.

Add 1 chopped bell pepper and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Stir in 1 tablespoon each of green chili sauce, tomato sauce, and red chili sauce, along with soy sauce and salt to taste.

Mix in 2-3 tablespoons of cornstarch to thicken the sauce and add the fried momos to coat them.
