The momos-making process begins with the vendor stir-frying cheese and paneer momos until these turn slightly golden brown. The excess oil is transferred to another container. Next, the vendor adds chopped cabbage and schezwan chutney on top of the fried momos. Before mixing all the ingredients, the vendor adds some vinegar to the remaining oil, lighting up a fire that touches the roof of his stall. After this, he again begins stir-frying the ingredients. The momos are served with spicy chutney.
