Recipe Story

If you've ever tried steamed Chinese buns at a dim sum restaurant, you'll recoqnize the light and tender dough. Here I've used ground turkey for filling to enclose the rich taste.

Ingredients

 
¼ cup Chinese mushrooms (minced)
 
2 sausages (chopped fine)
 
6 boiled eggs (cut into 4)
 
¼ lb raw shrimps (chopped into very small pieces)
 
3 green onions (thinly sliced)
 
1 cup cabbage(sliced into small pieces)
 
½ lb ground pork/turkey
 
For the pork:
 
1 tsp sesame oil
 
1 tbsp garlic powder
 
1 tbsp oyster sauce
 
½ tsp black pepper
 
For the bun:
 
1 packet Chinese bun flour
 
½ cup sugar
 
1 cup cold milk or water

Directions

Take the pork or turkey in a bowl. Add all the ingredients for pork into it. Mix well and keep aside.
Mix all the ingredients for the bun together in a bowl (keep 1 tbsp of flour aside for use while rolling). Make into a thick batter that can be rolled out. Cover and keep aside for 30 minutes.
Take a little dry flour on the board. Take a portion of the dough and roll out into 3 to 4” inches round. Put water on the edges for sealing. Pit in the filling and the sliced egg. Fold.
Take a bowl and add water and 1 tbsp of vinegar to it. When the steam appears place the buns on top in the steamer. Steam for 15 minutes. Enjoy!!
