• In a small cup, mix 2 teaspoons of yeast, 1/3 cup of water, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the white flour, baking powder, water-yeast mixture, and the rest of the dough ingredient. Stir using the wooden spoon and then knead using your hand.
• Add vegetable oil and continue kneading until the dough become soft and fluffy.
• Add more flour if the dough is too sticky or more water if the dough is too rubbery
• Cover the dough with a towel and leave it for 1 ½ hour to let the dough grow in size.

• Turn off the gas fire, and shred the braised chicken into smaller pieces using a fork. Set aside to prepare to assemble the bun.
• On a clean table, use your hand to roll the siopao dough into a cylindrical shape. Divide them into 8 pieces using the knife. Form each of them into a smaller ball
• In each ball, use the rolling pin to flatten the dough into a round shape
• Add two and a half tablespoons of Asado filling in the center of the dough
• Wrap the filling by holding the edge of the dough; seal the dough by twisting above to make it into a ball shape
• Place the siopao bun on the parchment paper. Repeat the rest.
• In a large pot, add a ½ cup of water
• Place the bun with inch apart in a steamer and transfer into the pot
• Cover the pot with the lid and let it steam for 15 minutes. You will notice the bun will grow in size.

SIOPAO (FILIPINO STEAMED BUNS)

Steps:

• Mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast together in a large bowl. Add water and 1/4 cup oil; mix into a dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, at least 10 minutes. Dust with extra flour if necessary.
• Warm up the oven for 1 minute. Turn oven off.
• Oil a large bowl; place dough inside and cover with cheesecloth. Place in the warmed oven until size has doubled, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough. Keep in the oven until risen, at least 15 minutes more. Knead dough onto a flat work surface and divide into 12 golf-sized balls. Roll out each ball and fill with choice of filling (see footnote for my chicken and pork filling). Gather and twist the edges together to secure the filling.
• Place each siopao on a 3x3-inch piece of wax paper.
• Place siopao in a steamer and steam for 30 minutes.

SIOPAO CHICKEN AND PORK FILLING

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add pork and chicken; cook and stir until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add soy sauce and sugar. Mix well; season with salt and pepper. Simmer until mixture is nearly dry and pork and chicken are no longer pink, about 10 minutes more. Let cool before filling the siopao dough.
