Bereiding

Mix together the warm water, 1/2 theelepel. suiker and gist in an 8 oz. measuring cup. Let stand until it rises to the 8 oz. level (about 20 minutes).

Sift meel, cake meel, suiker and zout into a large mixing bowl. Add bak-vet, gist mixture and milk. Knead mixture 5 minutes to form a dough.

Cover with a damp cloth and set dough in a warm place. Allow the dough to rise for 3 hours.

Heat wok, add olie and stir-fry pork for 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water, zout, suiker, sojasaus, oestersaus and hoisinsaus. Bring it to a bolie.

Prepare thickening by mixing the maïzena and 4 tablespoons cold water. Stir into the mixture and cook for 1 minute. Let cool before using.



After 3 hours, when the dough has risen, shape into rolls about 2 inches in diameter. Cut each roll into 1-1/2 inch pieces. Shape each piece into a shallow bowl shape.

Put 1 tablespoon filling in the center, close and twist dough to form a bun.

Put the bun on a 2 inch square of white paper. (This prevents the bun from becoming soggy while steaming.) Place 8 buns in a pie pan and allow them to set and rise for 15 minutes in a warm place.

Steam for 25 minutes. Serve.
