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,

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 char siew i made the day before
the pau mix that i used
dough flaten, ready for the fillings
the char siew fillings
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 :)
