  3. Heat oil in a pan and fry the onions to pink (not brown).
  4. Add the garlic & fry well.
  5. Then, add the mix vegetables mixture & fry well.
  6. Add the soy and chilli sauces, freshly ground pepper and salt to taste and cook till the veg is done.
  7. Make small balls of the dough & roll out each to 4-inch diameter rounds.
  8. Dab some water on the edges & place a tablespoon of the mix in the centre of each circle.
  9. Fold the edges over the meat & pinch and twist to seal or fold the Momo in half (into a semi-circular/moon shape) and pinch the edges shut.
  10. Place these arrangements onto a moist cloth/ parchment paper or well greased surface.
  11. Before placing them in the steamer ensure the steamer layers/trays are well greased.
  12. Place the Momos into the steaming dish and cook for 10-15 minutes. Serve with tomato chutney or a sweet-n-spicy tomato-chili sauce.
