Step 3: Season the vegetables with pepper and salt after they have cooled.

Step 4: Add soy sauce or other ingredients to enhance the flavour.

Step 9: Wrap them with a moist kitchen towel until they’re ready to steam.

Step 10: Bring the water in the cooker to a boil for steaming.

Step 13: Monitor the momos until they’re done.

Step 14: They are finished when the outer layer begins to change colour and no longer appears sticky.

Step 15: Fry them now for crispiness.

To Add Afghani Flavor:

In a mixing bowl, combine the curd and all of the spices, then pour over the momos and coat thoroughly.

Garnish with coriander and parsley, if desired.
