Vegetable Steamed Momos – Veg Momos is one of the most popular and loved streets foods in North India. We can find a variety of veg and non-veg momos at every alternate street food vendor which are quite economical and handy to eat.

Momos are little dumplings originated in Tibet but now are hugely popular in India. Traditional Momos are made with flour dough stuffed with a variety of fillings like mixed vegetables, paneer, mushroom, chicken etc and further steam cooked. But, now a days we can also find fried, baked and roasted momos as well.

These are combined with a special momo chutney or a sauce which is very spicy and tangy.

Not only at the street food vendors, even the big luxury hotels serve momos in a beautiful bamboo steamer cum serving box which look very elegant and enough to test your patience to grab those beautiful little dumplings. 🙂

Anyways, we can easily cook these momos at home. They are super easy and quick to cook at home.
