Beetroot Momos

Beetroot Momos is a delicious recipe of paneer dumplings encased in a beetroot flavoured layer. Paneer and beetroot complements each other in taste, texture and flavour in this recipe.

Momos are a popular street food in Northern and Northeastern parts of India. Momos are also known as Dim Sum and/or dumplings. Traditionally, momos are filled with vegetarian or meat fillings and steamed, they are served with a spicy momo sauce or schezwan sauce for the spiciness. Momos are very popular in Nepal too and almost every Nepali restaurant would offer it on their menu.

Momos are usually prepared with flour dough which is filled with either meat or vegetables. I have however used whole meal flour for these Tibetan inspired dumplings for extra boost of nutrition. My daughter loves momos and I tend to make different varieties of dough and/or fillings for a nutritious snack. The beetroot flavoured momos are appealing and appetizing!
