Char Siew Pau

It's been a long time since I last update my blog and it's looking more like a foodie blog now :) I bought a bamboo steamer not long ago, and thought I should make myself some char siew pau (one of my must order dish when i go for dim sum). I made some char siew yesterday using aunty lily's recipe, http://lilyng2000.blogspot.com/2005/07/char-siew.html, and made the pau today, http://lilyng2000.blogspot.com/2005/06/char-siew-pau.html.

the final results. i am quite satisfied since this is the first time i made pau. The fillings is quite dry, I will remember to make more gravy next time.

the pau before steaming. To know how to pleat the pau, watch those videos on youtube, loads of them :)

steam the pau for 10 min

ta-daa... looks a bit ugly, got to improve my pau pleating skill :)
