Momo are soft, juicy steamed dumplings filled with ground meat (commonly chicken, beef, or pork), onions, garlic, ginger, and sometimes cabbage or chili, wrapped in a thin wheat flour dough. Though momo originated in Tibet, they became a culinary staple across Nepal, Bhutan, Northern India, and regions of Western China, especially Yunnan and Tibet Autonomous Region. They are typically steamed in multi-level bamboo or metal steamers and served hot with spicy tomato chutney or chili garlic sauce. Momo are enjoyed as a street food snack or meal, particularly in mountain regions where hearty, warming dishes are favored. Common variations include fried momo, jhol (soup) momo, or vegetarian fillings.
