Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h30m

Yield 30-40 buns

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups self rising flour
1 cup milk
3/4 cup white sugar
2 links Chinese sausage, thinly sliced
5 hard-boiled eggs, cut into 1 ", pieces
1/2 lb barbecued pork (optional)
2 lbs ground pork
10 dried shiitake mushrooms
1 onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons oyster sauce

Steps:

  • Submerge mushroom in hot water until softened. Take them out, dry and finely juliene. Reserve water.
  • Heat some oil in a skillet, put in onions and let it sweat for a while. Stir in the rest of filling except boiled eggs and BBQ pork. Season with fish sauce and pepper to taste.
  • Add sugar to milk to dissolve. Add flour one cup at a time, after each time kneed the dough before adding the next cup. Put dough into a large mixing bowl, put a damp cheese cloth over to prevent drying out.
  • Cut a handful of dough (size to your choice), roll out thin (use bread roller or the smaller dumpling roller). Add a spoonful of filling, 1 piece of egg, BBQ pork. Seal dough tight around filling and put on a cut-out piece of parchment paper. Steam buns for about 15 minutes. These buns freeze pretty well as well, if you want to make a big batch at a time.

These buns were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I couldn't find bamboo steamers, so I steamed the buns in a colander. They turned out fine, but they weren't as fluffy as they would have been if I had used bamboo steamers.

I accidentally added too much salt to the dough. The buns were still edible, but they were a little too salty for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of pork, so I substituted chicken in the filling. It turned out great! The buns were still flavorful and juicy.

These buns were amazing! I made them for my kids' lunchboxes, and they came home empty. They said they were the best buns they've ever had.

These steamed buns were a hit at my party! They were so soft and fluffy, and the filling was delicious. I especially loved the sweet and savory combination of the pork and the vegetables.
