Momos Momos!

Not much more to say. Delicious as usual. I'm not crazy about this presentation. The napa cabbage should be turned around to draw out the off-white momos instead of fading them away.

Momos

1 large package wonton wrappers
1 recipe turkey filling
Momo sauce

Garnish:

½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
½ cup chopped green onions

Wet the corners of the wontons so they stick. Place ~1 tbs of turkey filling in the middle of each wonton and fold together. Steam the momos a few at a time, making sure they don’t touch each other. Cook until the dough turns transparent, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with momo sauce poured over. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and green onions.

Turkey Filling:

2 pounds ground turkey
½ cup chopped fresh dill
1 bunch green onions (green part only)
1 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper

Combine ingredients in a stand mixer or by hand. Use immediately or refrigerate up to 24hrs ahead of time for optimal flavor infusion.

Momo Sauce:

2 29oz cans tomato sauce
1 sliced serrano chilis
5 cloves minced garlic
3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
remaining dill (throw in whatever is leftover from the turkey filling)
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tsp of salt

In a large saucepan, heat the oil. Add the shallots and cook 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic, herbs and chilis and cook another minute. Add the tomato sauce and remaining ingredients. Bring up to a boil and then down to a simmer. Cook until flavors are infused, tasting periodically, about 30 minutes. Serve warm over momos.
