Its been years since I posted Vegetable momo recipe in my blog. Generally momos are made using maida/All purpose flour.But my MIL makes it using whole wheat flour as it is more healthy.So I too started making the same following my MIL.I have heard wheat flour momos are very popular in Delhi.Here I have shared the steamed version.You can try deep fried version too.According to me,there is no major difference in taste between maida & wheat momo except its color.One more thing,this momo has to be eaten really hot to enjoy its best taste else it will become slightly chewy. But when compared with maida momo,this is a healthy option indeed.I have used cabbage alone for stuffing.You can use finely chopped mixed vegetables if you are allergic of cabbage.Recently I got a request from my reader cum cute sister Dhivya to prepare wheat flour momos and post here.So here it is Dhivya,just for you .Friends,Do try this healthy momos & share your feedback.Ok, Lets see how to make whole wheat flour momos at home with step by step pictures & a Video.

Note
Adding oil in wheat flour while making the dough is to make a soft outer covering.
Roll the dough ball thinly to get a thin covering & to make the momos soft to eat.
Wheat flour momos become slightly chewy after it cools down.So eat it hot.Reheating is not recommended.
Replace wheat flour with maida or use maida & wheat flour in equal quantities for variations.
Replace cabbage with mixed vegetables for stuffing.
Adding a tsp of oil in the idli pot while steaming momos helps the momo to remain soft n shiny.
