Time 1h45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup lukewarm water
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast together in a large bowl. Add water and 1/4 cup oil; mix into a dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, at least 10 minutes. Dust with extra flour if necessary.
  • Warm up the oven for 1 minute. Turn oven off.
  • Oil a large bowl; place dough inside and cover with cheesecloth. Place in the warmed oven until size has doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch down dough. Keep in the oven until risen, at least 15 minutes more. Knead dough onto a flat work surface and divide into 12 golf-sized balls. Roll out each ball and fill with choice of filling (see footnote for my chicken and pork filling). Gather and twist the edges together to secure the filling.
  • Place each siopao on a 3x3-inch piece of wax paper.
  • Place siopao in a steamer and steam for 30 minutes.
