Anupam Kher has jumped onto the travel van again! He recently came back to India after a protracted tour across the u. s. of America, wrapping up the shooting of his upcoming movie ‘Shiv Shastri Balbao’. Now, he’s travelling to a different country; however, now he decided to remain within the Indian Subcontinent! Guess where is he? he’s in Nepal and is indulging in delicious Tibetan food. The 66-year-old actor keeps his 4.5 million Instagram followers updated about his recent travels through a series of Instagram videos. In his recent videos, we are able to see two plates stuffed with steaming hot momos in the midst of a bowl of piping hot clear soup and a few chutney.
While momos are synonymous with Delhi street food, many folks do not know that they were founded by the Newars of the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. These delectable steam dumplings became an all-time favourite of Indians and that we have accepted it amorously in our cuisine. Indians usually eat momos with a spicy hot red chutney, but in Anupam Kher’s video, we see them enjoy momos in Nepalese style. In Kathmandu valley, the standard way of serving momos is with a watery soup/broth called jhol and achar which has the consistency of chutney.
If observing Anupam Kher’s Instagram story has made you hungry for a few momos, then we’ve got a fun and yummy idea for you. Why not make momos at home? for creating momos, you’ll have to create the filling of your choice, vegetarian or non-vegetarian, then use a maida based dough to create the dumplings.
