Steamed & Fried Hotdogs Bread Rolls - 蒸香煎腊肠面包卷
Chinese bakeries always have a great variety of breads, cakes and cookies to choose from. I love Hong Kong style bakery buns because the brioche-like bread is super soft. One of my favorites is the hot dog bread and luckily it's quite easy to make. Although it is time consuming to make the dough, most of the time is spent waiting for it to rise. Well, making breads or buns are never easy I think.
This recipe is very unique, the breads are called for steaming then frying. The texture are soft inside and crispy outside. Give it a try, it's worth spending time!
... Enjoy!
