It is so much fun to try new dishes especially from other countries. I had to smile when I read your description of the foods. I tried momos in Nepal and Tibet. They were similar except for the sauces. It was an instant hit for me. I really enjoyed them. It was the opposite when I tried corn dogs. I do not need to repeat that experience.😀 The momos are steamed, not fried so they do look undercooked at first glance but they aren’t -as you now know.
It is great that you are adventurous to try new things - then what seems weird becomes more familiar and can even become enjoyable to you. Nice to hear that the original momos are now a favorite snack of your family.
wowoow good to know that you have tried Momos of Nepal and you liked them, this dish is differentiated in many regions with the type of sauce used in that specific region and it is mainly the dish of mountain people. In Northern Pakistan, this dish is called Mamtu but again a different spicy sauce.
hahaha you had a similar experience of Corndog as mine, it was looking nice but when tasted, it was wasted lol.
