Method

1
Make a firm dough with the plain flour and about 150ml water, knead for 2-3 minutes, then cover and rest for 20 minutes.
2
Finely chop the cabbage and mix with the carrots, onion and garlic cloves. Heat 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil in a pan and fry the mixture for 5 minutes until softened, then leave to cool.
3
Roll the dough out thinly and cut into 24 small rounds. Place a spoonful of filling in the centre of each, then pleat and pinch the edges closed to seal.
4
Steam the dumplings in a steamer basket for 10-12 minutes, until the wrappers are translucent and cooked through.
5
Char the tomatoes and dried red chillies under a hot grill for 8-10 minutes until blackened in patches, then blend with the sesame seeds and the remaining vegetable oil to make the achar.
6
Serve the momo hot with the tomato-sesame achar.
