Nepal's famous Jhol Momos are not just a dish, but a confluence of flavors and aromas that will leave a lasting impression from the very first bite. The special soupy base—made with spices, tomatoes, onions, and chilies—gives the momos a unique flavor. Dipping the momos in this hot broth is an experience like no other!
Ingredients for Jhol Momos
Minced chicken
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic
1 tablespoon ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 cup tomato puree
1 teaspoon red chili powder
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
How to Prepare Jhol Momos – Easy Recipe
1. Prepare the Momo Filling
First, mix the minced chicken with spices to taste, garlic, and ginger. This will give the filling a wonderful flavor.
2. Knead the Momo Dough
In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and a little oil to make a soft dough. Cover and let it rest for a while so that the momos can be easily shaped.
3. Make and Steam the Momos
Roll out thin sheets of dough, place the chicken filling in the center, and shape the momos. Steam them until they are fully cooked.
4. Begin Preparing the Jhol (Soup Base)
In a pan, start cooking the tomato puree. Let it simmer well to bring out the full flavor.
5. Add Spices to the Jhol
Now add red chili powder, turmeric powder, salt, black pepper, and a little ginger. Once the mixture thickens slightly, add water and bring it to a boil. This enhances both the texture and taste of the jhol.
6. Serve Hot Jhol Momos
Pour the prepared jhol into a bowl and place the steamed momos on top. You can garnish with fresh coriander or green chilies if desired.
