Method
-
1
Begin by soaking the rice sticks in a bowl of hot tap water for 15-20 minutes, or until they become pliable but still firm. Drain well and set aside.
-
2
Heat cooking oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add the Vegetable Momos and pan-fry for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and deliciously crispy on the outside, and heated through.
-
3
Once cooked, transfer the momos to a plate, keeping them warm. Add the drained rice sticks to the same skillet, adding a little more oil if needed. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly and develop a tender, chewy texture.
-
4
Pour in 1/4 cup of water, season with salt and black pepper to taste, and stir gently. Let the water mostly evaporate, ensuring the rice sticks are seasoned evenly.
-
5
Return the crispy momos to the skillet with the rice sticks, nestling them amongst the noodles. Gently toss to combine the flavors.
-
6
Evenly sprinkle the shredded mild yellow Cheddar Cheese over the momos and rice sticks. Cover the skillet with a lid for 2-3 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt into a gooey, irresistible blanket.
-
7
Remove the lid, and let the sight of the bubbling cheese entice you. Transfer the skillet creation to serving plates, ensuring each portion gets a generous share of momos and cheesy rice sticks.

Finally, drizzle liberally with the vibrant Fresh Tandoori Mayo DIP. Serve immediately as a hearty, flavor-packed Asian-inspired breakfast.
For an extra kick, a pinch of chili flakes can be added during the stir-fry. Ensure momos are cooked through and golden brown for the best texture. Don't overcook the rice sticks; they should remain al dente.
