In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes.
Grate the paneer finely and place it in a bowl.
Finely grate the cabbage, carrot, and capsicum, and add them to the paneer.
Mince the ginger and green chili, and add them to the vegetable and paneer mixture.
Stir in soy sauce, black pepper, and chopped coriander leaves. Mix well to combine all ingredients. This is your momo filling.
Divide the resting dough into small equal-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a thin disc using a rolling pin.
Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each disc. Fold and pleat the edges together to seal the momo tightly.
Brush a steamer with a little oil to prevent sticking, and arrange momos in the steamer basket with space in between.
Steam the momos for about 10-12 minutes or until the outer covering becomes slightly transparent.
Serve the low-fat paneer momos hot, alongside your favorite dipping sauce.
