Steamed Buns


My niece Diana has been asking me to make her some Red Bean Bao or steamed buns for so long and I finally made it for her last week. Making the buns is so easy now since there are so many ready pre-packed Bao flour and 'Red Bean ' paste at the Asian Supermarket. Just follow the instruction on the flour packaging and you will have the steamed buns in no time.

The flour
Red Bean Paste


With some leftover pastry we made some 'Char Siew Pau'

What is in your char siew filling, Gert?

Rita, for the filling I used char siew, green peas, shallots, garlic, oyster sauce, black sauce, sugar, salt and pepper. No measurements. Just 'agak agak'
