When your family is full of foodies and eats variety, you tend to come up with creating healthier versions of food they demand. So this is one such dish, that I like to tweak a little and make in wheat flour replacing white flour. When the final dish comes out to be tastier then!! why opt for regular dim sum?? and not "Wheat ones"??

It is also a fat free recipe, which makes this dish even more healthier. Only some drops of oil is used to grease the pan.

RECIPE

Instagram post can be found under this link

Yields: 12 momos

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Tools needed: Steamer, rolling pin

INGREDIENTS

For filling;

Red bell pepper 2 tbsp

Yellow bell pepper 2 tbsp

Capsicum 4 tbsp

Cabbage shredded 1/2 cup

Carrot grated 1/2 cup

Garlic cheese spread 2 tbsp

Salt to taste

Pepper powder to taste

Cumin powder 1 tsp

For dough

Wheat flour 3/4 cup + extra for dusting

Salt 1 pinch

Few drops for greasing

METHOD

In a mixing bowl add flour, salt and knead a semi stiff dough. Cover with damp cloth and keep aside.

Wash chop and grate vegetables.

Take them in a bowl add a teaspoon of salt and let it sit for 5 minutes.

In a kitchen towel, take the vegetables and squeeze out the excess liquid. Add this liquid in dals, curries or soups.

Tranfer the veggies to the bowl again, and add salt, pepper powder, cumin powder and garlic cheese spread.

Mix and filling is ready.

Place a steamer pan on medium flame or like I have organized a temporary steamer using a large kadai.

Grease the bottom of a vegetables strainer with few drops of oil. To make it completely oilfree, keep a banana leaf in the bottom of the pan and skip the greasing part.
