1

Prepare the dough by mixing all-purpose flour, water, and salt until smooth; knead for 5-10 minutes.

2

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

3

Finely chop cabbage, carrots, and capsicum; mix in a bowl.

4

Add grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green chili, soy sauce, vegetable oil, and black pepper to the vegetables; mix well.

5

Divide the rested dough into three equal portions; color one portion with orange food coloring, another with green, and leave the last portion plain.

6

Roll out each portion into thin circles about 4-5 inches in diameter.

7

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

8

Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape; pinch to seal tightly.

9

Arrange the colored momos in a steamer, alternating colors to create a tricolor effect.

10

Steam the momos for about 15-20 minutes until the dough is cooked through and translucent.

11

Serve hot with momo chutney on the side.
