Dolma Aunty's Momo Empire: From Tibet to Delhi Streets
Dolma Aunty came from Tibet and started selling momos, a type of dumpling, in Delhi.
At first, people were not used to them.
She changed the recipe to make it taste better for people in Delhi.
Over time, more and more people loved the momos.
Now, her business is very successful and makes a lot of money every month.
