Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Mix Ingredients
Add the flour, milk, vegetable oil, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
First Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Shape the Buns
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into equal portions. Roll each portion into a flat circle, place a spoonful of the red bean filling in the center, and pinch the edges to seal.
Second Rise
Place the shaped buns on a steamer tray lined with parchment paper, cover, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Steam the Buns
Steam the buns over boiling water for about 15-20 minutes until they are fluffy and cooked through.
Serve
Remove the buns from the steamer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your sweet red bean buns!
