My first chinese steam buns
admin | October 4, 2009Those are my kids favourite. In frozen or freash, you can get them in almost any chinese shops. Just steam them 10 to 15min, ready to eat. It’s great quick snack or meal and helps busy mum like me.
There are many choices of flavour, you can have sweet and savoury. I purchased cha-sui (sweet pork). It was a pack of 6 pieces for about £2.50. not cheap.. also taste wasn’t as good as I thought. I thought I can do better than those. so I decided to make my own.
First of all was to find reliable recipes and copy how other people do (but I always do slightly differently anyway, I like experimenting) I decided to do savoury pork. It turns out good but needs few things changing, buns texture and flavour to get it just right! but i think its better than ones in a shop.
My second attempt coming soon.
