Method:

1. Sieve flour in a plate, mix a tea spoon of salt, a tea spoon of oil and knead using water. Dough should be tight.
2. Keep the dough covered for 10 minutes with wet muslin or cotton cloth. After 10 minutes take a spoon of oil in hands and knead the dough again for smooth texture.

10. Put a spoon full of ready filling in the middle of rolled momo shell.
11. Start binding the edges to make momo in any shape of your choice. I have tried some shapes for reference.
12. For steaming, boil glass of water in a deep pan or steamer. Put the sieve on top and sprinkle a pinch of salt in it to keep moisture in the steamer.
