Steamed Pork Buns Directions

NOTE: these buns are cooked in bamboo steamers which are available in
Chinese and specialty gourmet cookware stores. The round steamers can
be purchased in various sizes separately or in sets of two of three
tiers. For cooking, the covered steamer(s) is (are) placed over
boiling water in a wok or large saucepan.

The above is quoted directly from a section connected to the recipe.
This is my own note. I do not like the flavor that a bamboo steamer
imparts to recipes; therefore, I bought an aluminum Chinese steamer.
1. Combine hoi sin sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce and sesame oil.
Chop pork and onions finely.

2. Heat vegetable oil in wok or fry pan over high heat. Stir-fry
ginger and garlic in the oil 1 minute. Stir in hoi sin mixture. Cook
and stir two minutes. Combine 1/2 cup of the water and the
cornstarch. Blend into hoi sin mixture. Cook and stir until liquid
boils. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 2 minutes. Stir in pork and
onions. Remove from heat. Cool completely.

3. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Cut or rub in
shortening until mixture resembles bread crumbs. Combine remaining
3/4 cup of the water and the vinegar. Mix water-vinegar into flour
until dough sticks together. Shape dough into ball. Knead on lightly
floured surface 6 or 8 times. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand
20 minutes. Uncover and knead 4 or 5 more times. Divide dough into
12 equal portions.
Shape each portions into a smooth ball.

4. Roll each ball of dough on lightly floured surface into a circle 5
to 6 inches in diameter. Brush around edges lightly with water.
Spoon a heaping tablespoon of pork mixture onto center of each
circle. Carefully pinch edges together to seal dough around filling.
Bring the two ends of dough over the seam and pinch together.

5. Cut waxed paper into twelve 5-inch squares. Brush one side of
paper lightly with oil. Place a bun, seam side down, on each square.

6.Place buns with paper in single layer on steamer rack over boiling
water. Cover and steam buns until done about 20 minutes.

Yield: 1 dozen

BARBECUED PORK:

1. Remove and discard fat from meat.

2. Combine soy sauce, wine, sugar, honey, food coloring, cinnamon,
garlic and onion in large bowl. Add pork, turning tenderloins to coat
completely. Cover and let stand at room temperature 1 hour or
refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.

3. Drain pork, reserving marinade. Place pork on wire rack over a
baking pan.

4. Bake in preheated 350 degree F. oven until done, about 45 minutes.
Turn and baste frequently during baking.

5. Remove pork from oven. Cool. Cut into diagonal slices.

Serves: 12
