Chilli momo (C-momo) in Australia
C-momo, short for chilli momo, is momo gone loud. Fried momo tossed hard in a sticky, hot, faintly sweet chilli sauce with onion and capsicum until every dumpling is glazed and glossy. It eats like the best bar snack you have ever had.
This is momo for a night out, sticky-fingered and moreish, made to share over drinks. If steamed momo is the quiet test of a kitchen, C-momo is the party.
We have mapped 124 spots serving it, most across New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.
