Millet vs maida: Can millet momos really be healthier than regular momos? Former Uttarakhand CM Harish Rawat shares nutritional benefits

Using finger millet as an alternative to wheat flour for momos can elevate their nutritional profile. This shift not only increases dietary fiber and calcium but also promotes whole-grain benefits. However, the overall nutrition relies on various factors including the choice of fillings, preparation methods, and portion sizes. While steamed momos are preferable, excessive sauces can diminish their health advantages, so mindful ingredient selection is key.
