    Recipe from Jigme Topgyal, a Tibetan.

    In his native Tibet, these would be made with a flour
    ground from roasted barley called "Tsampa". The
    [alternate] filling usually is made with ground
    chicken mashed with onions, daikon, fresh ginger,
    garlic and cilantro. [A] Vegetarian filling contains
    chopped cabbage, bok choy, tofu, green onion, ginger
    and garlic.
