Tandoori Momos are one of the most exciting and unique offerings at Kissan Restaurant & Sweets in Tamarack, Edmonton. This innovative dish combines the beloved Himalayan dumpling tradition with the iconic North Indian tandoor cooking technique. We begin with carefully handcrafted momos — delicate dumplings filled with a flavorful mixture of vegetables and spices — that are first steamed to perfection.
The steamed momos are then brushed with a vibrant red chili marinade and finished in our blazing hot tandoor oven, where they develop a beautiful charred exterior with a slightly crispy texture. The contrast between the soft, juicy dumpling interior and the smoky, slightly charred outside is what makes Tandoori Momos so uniquely irresistible. Served with a fiery tomato-chili chutney, our Tandoori Momos are a specialty you won't find at every Indian restaurant in Edmonton.
