The Iconic Taste of Momos

Momo is a type of South Asian dumpling, which is native to Tibet, Nepal, and the Northeastern regions of India. The exact history of Momo is difficult to trace, but it is believed that they were first created in Tibet several hundred years ago. Tibetan nomads would travel to other regions with their yaks and would bring their traditional cuisine with them. They would often make dumplings from yak meat, which would be filled with various vegetables and spices. Over time, this dish became known as Momo. In the 1970s, Momos began to gain popularity in Nepal, and from there, they spread to other countries in South Asia. Nowadays, these tasty dumplings are a favourite among locals and tourists alike and are often sold by street vendors or in small mom-and-pop restaurants.

The success of Momos as a street food in India can be attributed to a few factors. Firstly, Momos are relatively easy to make and can be prepared quickly, which makes them ideal street food. Secondly, they are affordable and offer a tasty snack or meal option for people on a budget. Thirdly, their unique flavour and texture have made them a popular choice among food enthusiasts, who are always on the lookout for new and exciting dishes to try. Today, Momos are popular in countries such as Nepal, India, Bhutan, and Bangladesh, and they have also gained popularity in other parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia.

Momos are typically made with a flour-based dough, which is filled with various ingredients such as minced meat, vegetables, cheese, or tofu. Then, they are then steamed, fried, or boiled and served with a variety of dipping sauces. One reason for the popularity of Momos is their versatility. They can be filled with a variety of ingredients, making them suitable for vegetarians and vegans too. We can offer two delicious vegan options – Steamed Mushroom Momos in Manchurian Sauce and Street Food Style Fried Chili Momos with Spicy Sesame Sauce.

Why choose our Momos?

Health benefits. Our Vegan Momos are made with plant-based ingredients, which are typically lower in calories, saturated fats, and cholesterol compared to meat-based Momos.

Momos are generally considered a healthier option compared to other fast-food snacks, as they are low in fat and calories. Additionally, our fillings and sauces are made with fresh and nutritious ingredients.

Choosing vegan Momos over meat-based ones can help reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future. By choosing vegan Momos, you can help reduce the demand for animal products and support more compassionate and ethical treatment of animals.

Flavour and variety. Vegan Momos can be just as flavorful and satisfying as meat-based ones, and they offer a variety of fillings and spices to suit different tastes and preferences. In recent years, momos have become something of a cultural phenomenon, with many people around the world embracing the dish as a symbol of South Asian cuisine.

HOW SUSTAINABLE EATING IS CHANGING THE GAME

As a promoter of sustainable eating, V-Giyan is dedicated to providing you with delicious, plant-based meals that are good for you and the planet! Animal agriculture is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, so by promoting a plant-based diet, we are reducing our carbon footprint and helping to mitigate climate change.

Producing meat requires a lot of water, whereas plant-based foods generally require less water to grow. By choosing plant-based meals, we are helping to conserve water resources. Animal agriculture is a leading cause of deforestation, as forests are often cleared to make way for livestock grazing or feed production. By choosing plant-based meals, we are helping to reduce the demand for animal products and, in turn, the need for deforestation. Our service prioritizes locally sourced and seasonal ingredients, which supports local farmers and reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation. We aim to reduce food waste by sourcing ingredients that are in season and planning our meals carefully to ensure that we use all of our ingredients effectively.
