The most loved momo style, fold the wrapper in half and pleat one side over the other. It seals beautifully and gives that traditional street-style momo look.
Seal the momo into a crescent shape, then gently twist the edges. It creates a slightly decorative finish while keeping the filling secure.
Gather the wrapper at the top and tie the folds together into a round “money bag.” Cute, festive, and perfect for experimenting with presentation.
Roll and pleat the wrapper in overlapping folds to resemble a blooming rose. They look gorgeous on a platter and are great for serving guests.
Bring the edges together toward the centre and pinch them shut to create a small pouch. It’s neat, pretty, and works perfectly with juicy fillings.
Pleat the edges around the filling but leave the centre slightly open at the top. They’re easy to shape, steam beautifully, and let the filling peek through for a delicious-looking finish.
Fold the wrapper into a triangle and pinch the corners tightly. Simple, quick, and ideal if you’re making a large batch.
