Chinese Meat Bun Ingredients
500 g of wheat flour

½ tablespoon of salt
Flour for dusting
Filling: 300g of shredded pork or beef (sautéed with onion, olive oil, and soy sauce)

The best part is that this bun is ready in just a few minutes, ideal for those days when a craving for a snack strikes and time is short. It’s the practicality we all crave, with the flavor we deserve!
Recipe Preparation Method
In a large bowl, place the wheat flour, yeast, and salt. Mix well, add the milk, and continue stirring until you get a homogeneous dough. Add a little more flour gradually to get a smooth dough that doesn’t stick to your hands.
Once the dough is homogeneous, place it on a lightly floured countertop, make a long roll, and cut it into 16 equal parts. Roll each piece into discs of approximately 0.5 cm, place the shredded meat filling in the center (about 1 tablespoon). Pull the dough from the edges over the filling and press well to seal. Leave the seam facing down. After having the filled buns, you can choose the cooking method:
1.Steamed (Original Recipe): Add a little water to the pot and bring it to a boil. Arrange the buns in a steamer basket or on a damp cloth over a sieve. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat. They will be white and moist!
2.Air Fryer: Heat the air fryer without oil to 160°C (320°F), arrange the buns, and cook for about 10 minutes.
3.Oven: Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for about 15 minutes.
And for my followers who love variety and are looking for options even more adapted to their needs, I prepared a version of this bun that is simply amazing! With healthy ingredients and a special touch, it will win your taste buds and help you stay focused on your diet.
