Preparation
Step 1
In a pan, add diced char siu chicken and water. Bring to a boil.
Add rice vinegar, sesame oil, oyster sauce and brown sugar. Simmer for 3 minutes.
Add corn flour and water mixture. Cook until thick (about 1 to 2 minutes). (The filling should not be too runny or thick.)
Set aside until ready to use.
When the dough is ready,
Prepare couple of baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Set aside.
Punch down the dough to remove the air.
Divide the dough with each measuring 50 grams. Flatten each and fill the a heaping tablespoon of char sit filling. Seal the edges. Place on the baking sheet, loosely covered. Let them rise again until doubled in size.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350 F.
When ready, carefully brush the tops of the buns with egg yolk.
Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Note:Almost any meat filling (chicken, beef bbq, etc. or even sausage and egg can be used as long as it not TOO wet!)
