Ingredients

• 250 grams Gluten-free flour mix (for dough)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 200 ml Water
• 200 grams Paneer
• 1 medium Onion
• 1 inch Ginger
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 small Green Chili
• 1 medium Carrot
• 100 grams Cabbage
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
• 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce (Gluten-Free)
• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 1 tablespoon Oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free flour mix and salt. Gradually add water to form a soft, pliable dough. Cover and set aside for 20 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, finely chop the onion, ginger, garlic, green chili, carrot, and cabbage. Grate the paneer.

Step 3

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until translucent. Add ginger, garlic, and green chili; continue to sauté for another minute.

Step 4

Stir in carrots and cabbage. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 5

Add grated paneer, soy sauce, black pepper, and salt to taste. Mix well and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down. Stir in chopped coriander leaves.

Step 6

Divide the dough into equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin disc using a rolling pin.

Step 7

Place a spoonful of the paneer filling in the center of the disc. Fold and pleat the edges to seal the momos.

Step 8

Prepare a steamer by adding water and bringing it to a boil.

Step 9

Place the momos in the steamer basket and steam for about 10-12 minutes until the outer cover becomes glossy and slightly translucent.

Step 10

Serve hot with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.
