LET’S COOK

How to make it

01

Knead a dough from the flour, cold water and a pinch of salt for eight minutes and rest it under film for half an hour.

02

Mix the chopped meat with the onion, ginger, garlic, coriander, timur, a spoon of oil and salt. Do not work it to a paste; pieces should remain.

03

Char the tomatoes over a flame until blackened, toast the chillies and sesame in a dry pan, and blend everything with salt into a sauce.

04

Roll eight-centimetre rounds, thinner at the edges. Add a spoon of filling and pleat all the way round, twisting the top shut.

05

Oil the steamer and cook the momo ten minutes over a fierce steam, keeping them from touching.
