Tip

When placing buns in varoma make sure they are not too tall. They will raise and it is best if they do not hit the lid.

  • Yumm! I substituted half the

    Submitted by Chloe91g on 4. March 2015 - 13:07.

    Yumm! I substituted half the flour for wholemeal flour to make it a bit healthier, I already had some left over roast pork so I just chopped that up and used it for the filling with 2 tsps of a half half mixture of hoi sin sauce and sweet chilli sauce). I reduced the veroma time to only 15mins as I usually only steam pork buns for that long and they were getting a bit soggy. Next time I would make 12 buns as they came out huge. I made some western ones too; devon with tomato sauce filling (tastes just like a hot dog), pork with smokey bbq sauce.

    I made these and they were very yummy. I added lots of extra ginger because I love ginger and I used sweet soy. I also struggled to make them a consistent size but they were very good! Thanks for the recipe.

    Took 2 hours, very disappointed. No one would eat it. The bun bit was ok but the filling was tasteless. Ended up throwing nearly all of it out. Might try again but make filling more flavourful, but not sure it's worth the bother.
