Momo is a dumpling which has fillings of vegetables or meat inside. There are two theories of the origin of Momo. One theory states that Momo originated in Nepal. The other theory says Momos have originated in Tibet. Momos came to India in 1960. This was also the year when Tibetans had entered India. Do you know the Indian states famous for Momos? They are Ladakh, Darjeeling, Sikkim, Dharamshala and Delhi. Coincidentally, these are the same locations where the Tibetans had settled. Momo is essentially dough which is steamed and has savory filling (veggies or meat) and is served with a chili dip.
