I've been told the best momos in Kathmandu are found in little hole-in-the-wall shops with only a curtain for a door. Leaving these to the more culinary adventurous, my favorites are the ones served in someone's home.

Ramro khana! My Paleo Marin: 4 Persimmons Ingredients: For the Wrappers: (Made in 2 batches) 4 cups Cup4Cup Gluten Free Flour (divided in half) 1 teaspoon fine sea salt (divided in half) 1 cup water (divided in half) 2 large eggs (beaten separately in 2 bowls) For the Filling: 1 pound ground beef (85% lean) 1/2 pound ground pork 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped 1/2 cup Napa Cabbage, finely chopped (leafy part) 12 stalks cilantro, finely chopped (handfull) 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, grated 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh ginger, peeled and grated 1 teaspoon fine sea salt 2 teaspoons coriander powder 1 teaspoon cumin powder 1 teaspoon turmeric powder 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper Grapeseed or olive oil to lightly grease bottom of steamer pan Directions: For the Wrappers: (Note: Make 2 times) 1. In a large bowl, add 2 cups of flour. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt. Push aside a hole in the center of the flour and add 1/2 cup water and 1 beaten egg. Whisk or mix with a wooden spoon starting in the middle and working out until the dough comes together. On a lightly-floured board, knead the dough for about 5 minutes, until it is smooth. Place ball of dough in a bowl and cover with a towel for about 15 minutes. 2. Repeat (1) for second batch. For the Filling: 1. In a large bowl, mix the beef and pork together with a fork or your fingers. Add the chopped onion, cabbage, cilantro, garlic, ginger, salt, and spices. Mix well with your hands or a large spoon. To Assemble: 1. Divide the dough in each bowl into 3 equal pieces (6 total). Roll out the dough to 1/4" thick. Cut rounds with a 2" cookie cutter, and then roll these out to 4". Place a spoonful of filling in each round, and fold the sides to enclose the meat. Put on a plate and set aside. (Note: For any extra filling, you can freeze it, make lamb burgers, or make more dough.) 2. In a double boiler, add about 3 inches of water and place the greased steamer basket on top. Add momos to cover the bottom in one layer. Cover with a lid, and when the steam starts to escape around the lid, turn the heat down a bit and set a timer for 15 minutes. 3. Remove the cooked momos, and serve hot if possible or keep warm. Repeat steaming until all the momos you want to eat are cooked through. For a delicious dipping sauce, see "Ninja Granny's Tomato Achaar" recipe here (adapt seasonings to taste). The recipe made about 38 momos; 8 are a typical adult serving. Freeze any extras for later; to serve, steam for 25 minutes. #paleo #momos #dumplings #beef #pork #Nepali #Tibetan #Sherpa #Asian #Himalayas #Kathmandu *"Good food" in Nepali.

Can't remember when I've enjoyed sweet potatoes more. This dish was supposed to be about the chicken, but the sweet potato chunks absorbed the creamy sauce and left me checking the pot for more.

Fall apples and baking are something to look forward to each year, but what about all the added sugar? If you're glucose intolerant, or just want to eat healthier, the options are not very appealing. I decided to take this on as a challenge, putting the package of sugar back twice as I pondered how to modify this seasonal comfort food without added sugar or dairy. In a Food & Wine recipe, I figured that the biscuit topping would be sweet enough by substituting coconut milk for dairy and dusting the top with cinnamon before baking. It was. Sort of. That left the apple filling. The recipe called for a pomegranate juice reduction, and so, instead of a cup of sugar, I tried mixing the juice reduction with Medjool dates in a food processor, and voila! A naturally sweet syrup in which to bake the apples. It was delicious. The coconut milk whipped cream was the crowning glory that brought it all together. And the payoff for a "pretty good dessert?" No digestive payback from one of my favorite comfort foods! My Paleo Marin Rating: 3 Persimmons Ingredients: Filling: 2 cups pomegranate juice 4 oz. Medjool dates 1/4 cup gluten free flour, preferably Cup4Cup 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 6 Granny Smith apples, cored, peeled, halved and sliced 1/3 inch thick Cobbler: 2 cups gluten free flour, preferably Cup4Cup 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 stick cold butter, 4 oz., cut into small pieces 1 can coconut milk, preferably Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk, refrigerated overnight Toppings: Pomegranate seeds 1 can coconut cream, preferably Thai Kitchen Coconut Cream, refrigerated overnight upside down Directions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Filling: 1. Over medium heat, boil down 2 cups of pomegranate juice until it measure 1/3 cup (about 15 minutes). 2. Pit the dates; mix with the juice reduction in a food processor until well combined. 3. Place the prepped apples in a large bowl. Coat the apples with 1/4 cup flour, salt, and the date/juice reduction by stirring with a stiff spatula. Pour mixture a 9" round glass baking dish. Cobbler: 1. Add the 2 cups of flour, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl. Whisk to combine. 2. Add the butter pieces and work to combine with 2 knives or a pastry cutter. Knead with hands until dough slightly holds together. 3. Put the coconut milk in a small bowl and stir until the lumps dissolve. Set aside about 1/8 cup. Fold the remainder of the coconut milk into the dough just until thoroughly mixed. 4. Place the dough in clumps over the top of the filling. Spread to cover the top if you prefer. Brush the top with the remaining coconut milk. Sprinkle the top with cinnamon using a fine sieve. 5. Place the baking dish on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden. If the top starts to get too brown, cover with foil. Toppings: 1. Place the cooked cobbler on a rack to cool for 20 minutes. Sprinkle the top with pomegranate seeds. 2. For the coconut whipped cream, open the can and put the firm part of the cream in a mixer. Beat until stiff peaks form. 3. Add the whipped cream and extra pomegranate seeds to serve. #paleo #apple #cobbler #coconut #coconutcream #glutenfree #dairyfree #noaddedsugar #Medjool #pomegranates #comfortfood #food&wine Recipe adapted from the Food & Wine recipe here.
