Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Water
- 1 medium Carrot (finely grated)
- 1.5 cups Cabbage (finely shredded)
- 1 small Capsicum (finely chopped)
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper powder
- 1 teaspoon Oil (for greasing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and salt.
Gradually add water while kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and pliable. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside.
Prepare the filling by mixing carrots, cabbage, capsicum, onion, garlic, and ginger in a medium bowl.
Add gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper to the vegetables. Mix well to combine.
Divide the dough into small balls, approximately the size of a golf ball. Roll each ball into a thin circle on a lightly floured surface.
Place a spoonful of the vegetable mixture in the center of each circle. Fold the edges together and pleat them to seal the momo in a crescent or round shape.
Grease a steamer tray lightly with oil to prevent the momos from sticking.
Place the prepared momos on the tray, making sure they are not touching each other.
Steam the momos over boiling water for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough becomes translucent and cooked through.
Serve hot with your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce or chutney.
