Cha siu bao (叉燒包) a.k.a. siopao asado

I made too much filling so I made the other (steamed) kind too after all :)

My notes:

• I made just half the recipe (6 buns) since I didn’t have that much filling; even then there were too many buns so I ended up using some of the soy sauce chicken (see last post) to make more filling haha.
• I let the buns rise a lot longer than the recipe indicated because I got busy with calls; turned out fine.
• I have a long way to go w.r.t. pleating steamed buns hahaha. Should probably roll out thinner next time.
• The texture of the buns was so soft and nice, even after reheating in the microwave! *__* Definitely will make again! Maybe will try nikuman or 菜肉包 next time hehe.
