I made some 'chinese' bbq pork the other day and had a little left.  I chopped it into tiny pieces, threw it in a pan with some of the ingredients i used to make the pork, boiled it and set it aside.  i made some dough, pretty easy, and then married them... may i present my cheap eats, leftover bbq pork steamed buns... ala me


   

TRACY'S BAO(ish) bbq pork steamed buns


DOUGH:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
3/4 cup room temperature water
DUMP it all iin a kitchen aid with dough hook, knead till smooth. OR do it by hand if you have that kind of time and energy
LET it rest, covered, till double, about 45 mins.
Divide into 12 
Roll into balls, let rest
WHILE THE DOUGH IS RESTING, make the filling: 
FILLING:
.
You need about 2 cups of chopped (tiny) meat filling (I made charsiu yesterday, recipe coming)
1 TB light soy
1 TB oyster sauce
1 TB hoisin
1 TB sugar
1/2 cup water
1 TB cornstarch
THROW it all in a saucepan, boil till it's thick, put aside.

Roll balls flat, there's a technique, i'll show you in the video tomorrow. put filling in each, seal and put on parchment squares and put in the steamer to rest about 10 mins.
Put steamer over boiling water, steam 15 mins, remove steamer, covered, and let it rest 5 mins.
Open, eat. 


I'm doing the play by plays and editing a video of the method and it'll be up tomorrow, for now here's the recipe
