Recipe Review Chinese Steamed Buns
« on: April 18, 2010, 08:59:02 am »
Chinese Steamed Buns
Budget Busters Book
Tweaking
I only used 3/4 teaspoon of sugar, 280g bakers flour, 150g water and the dough seemed fine to me.

I served these with Sweet Chilli Sauce from this forum, Capsicum jam from this forum and Soy Sauce.
These do take a little time to make because of all the rising of the dough.
I used chicken as the meat.  I added a chilli to the meat mix too.This needs to be cool so make it well before.

Score

5/5 We really enjoyed these

Sent tweak to Tenina. Good one cookie1!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

I made these at easter - yep they did take a little time, but they were well worth it.  Gone in about 30seconds. I ilked the filling but think I may have whizzed it too much.  I am trying to think of some other fillings - something a bit more chinese in flavour.  I had yum cha in Melbourne on Sunday and my kids said they liked my buns better, but the yum cha filling more than mine. Does anyone have any suggestions for different fillings.  I am sure you could easily make a vegetarian version too. Thanks  :)

Not sure what is in them now - but sure there would be lots of possible variations.

You could use any meat or fish I think. You could even use chopped tasty vegetables. I'm going to try a sweet version using stewed apple. In season even a whole peach or maybe a plum would be nice.
