Momocha or Momos are a type of dumpling popular in Nepal, Tibet and other regions bordering the Himalayan Mountains. They have a variety of flavors and are can be found in both restaurants and in street vendor stalls.
Momos are made with a simple flour and water dough that is rolled into thin circles. A mixture of either ground meats, vegetables, tofu or paneer is used as filling. The dough is then pinched together in either in a round pocket or a half moon shape. Momocha are traditionally steamed to cook, but sometimes pan fried or deep fried.
At Kathmandu Momocha, our dumplings are colored with natural dyes to help distinguish the different flavors.
