Finely chop cabbage, carrots, onions, and green peas in a bowl.

4

Add minced garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped coriander, salt, black pepper, and chili powder to the vegetables.

Divide the rested dough into small balls and roll each ball into a thin circle.

7

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

Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a dumpling.

Grease a steamer basket and arrange the momos in it without touching each other.
