pork buns
Siu Pao is one of the representative snacks in Guangdong and one of the "Four Great Kings (shrimp dumplings, dry steamed siamai, Siu Pao Pao, egg tart)" of Cantonese morning tea. Cut into small pieces, add oyster sauce and other seasoning to make the filling, wrap the outside with flour, place it in a steamer and steam it. The general size of barbecued pork buns is about five centimeters in diameter, and there are usually three or four in a cage. A good barbecued pork bun uses moderately fat and lean barbecued pork buns as the filling. After steaming, the wrapper is soft and smooth, and it cracks slightly to reveal the barbecued pork stuffing, exuding the aroma of barbecued pork.

    It would be even better with a small steamer, but I don't have it. It's just as delicious when steamed!
