Pork Filling
Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Pork Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, sesame oil, and chopped green onion. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Cook the Filling
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the pork mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until the pork is fully cooked and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- 3
Prepare the Buns
While the pork is cooling, prepare your favorite bao bun dough or use store-bought bao buns. If making from scratch, follow the dough recipe and allow it to rise until doubled in size.

Assemble the Buns
Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each piece into a circle. Place a spoonful of the pork filling in the center of each dough circle. Gather the edges of the dough and pinch them together to seal the bun.
- 5
Steam the Buns
Place the assembled buns in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Steam over boiling water for about 15-20 minutes or until the buns are fluffy and cooked through.

Serve
Remove the buns from the steamer and serve hot with Sriracha sauce on the side.
