For the dough:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp instant yeast

• 1 tsp sugar

•  ½ tsp salt

• 1 TBSP vegetable oil

• ½ cup warm water

 

For the filling:

• ½ lb fresh mushrooms of your choice, shredded

• 1 tbsp hoisin sauce

• 1 tsp truffle oil

• black pepper

 

Prepare the Dough:

1. Mix the dry ingredients, then gradually add water and oil. 

2. Knead for 10-15 minutes until the dough is smooth, elastic, and not sticky.

3. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours, or until doubled in size.

4. To shape the buns, divide the dough into balls, roll it into discs, place the filling in the center, and pinch the edges to seal.

5. Place the shaped buns, smooth side up, on small squares of parchment paper and let them rest for 15–30 minutes.

6. Place the buns in a steamer basket, ensuring there is space between them for expansion. Steam over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.

7. Turn off the heat but keep the lid on for 5 minutes after cooking to prevent the buns from collapsing.
