What one serving looks like
Five veg momos of about 25 g each is a small steamer plate, each the size of a large tablespoon.
Where it fits in a 1,200 to 1,600 kcal day
At 223 kcal, one serving is about 14 percent of a 1,600 kcal day and about 19 percent of a 1,200 kcal day. Steamed momos are a lighter snack than a samosa. A plate of five with chutney is a reasonable evening snack.

How cooking changes the number
Steamed momos have little added fat. Fried momos and the red chutney with oil raise the number.
A swap to try
Try Moong sprouts. Moong sprouts give a light, high fibre snack with protein. Moong sprouts (1 katori raw, about 100 g) comes to 30 kcal, which is 193 kcal less than 223 for veg momos.
Who might want to watch it
Momos use refined flour wrappers, so they are quick to digest.
