Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Mix in the yeast mixture and vegetable oil. Knead until smooth. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Buns

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a circle, place a spoonful of filling in the center, and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.

  4. 4

    Cooking the Buns

    To steam, place buns in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper and steam for 15-20 minutes. For pan-fried, heat oil in a skillet, add buns, and fry until golden, then add water to the pan and cover to steam for an additional 10 minutes.
