Are you missing these Yumm Balls ? - Wheat Paneer Momos

Who does not love momos?

Almost every street of Delhi has a hot momos corner. This popular north eastern traditional food came to India from Nepal & Tibet. Traditionally due to scarcity of vegetables in hilly areas it was stuffed with meat only and seemed with hot chilli garlic dip to keep the body warm. But now endless varieties are there- among those Wheat momos with paneer stuffing are my favourites as they are comparatively more healthy choice for vegetarians. Sharing the recipe which I followed.
