  1. Here is my recipe if anyone needs it. This recipe, without lots of kneading, can save you time and energy 😋

    [Full Recipe with step-by-step instruction](https://youtu.be/QZ5BUBuUJ5E)

    **Ingredients:**

    * ¾ Cup (150gr) All-Purpose Flour/ Low-protein Flour
    * 2 Tbsp (25gr) Sugar & A pinch of Salt
    * ½ tsp Baking Powder
    * ½ tsp Instant Yeast
    * ⅓ Cup (75ml) Whole Milk

    **The Filling – Braised Pork Belly:**

    * 2lbs Pork Belly
    * Caramel Sauce, Salt, Sugar, Chicken Powder, Onion, Garlic, Red Onion
    * Toppings: Daikon & Carrot Pickles, Scallion

    **Instruction:**

    * Mix all ingredients together until no longer dry dough, rest for 10 minutes.
    * Knead for about 10 minutes. Let the dough rise for about 30-45 minutes depending on your room temperature, or until the dough is doubled in size.
    * Divide the dough into 6 equal parts. Brush a layer of oil in the center so it doesn’t stick while steaming. Shape into the shell if you like.
    * Leave in the steamer and proof for another 30 minutes
    * Bring the water to a boil (Do not use boiling water). Once the water boiled, reduce the heat and steam for another 12 minutes.
    * Slightly leak out the steamer, so the buns don’t shrink due to the sudden temperature change
    * Put any filling or braised pork belly, pickles, scallion. Enjoy! 🧡

  2. Had some of these at a restaurant recently. They made me do a double take because it looked just like the picture I took. Awesome job! Looks so tasty!
