Halal Steam Buns ( Pau) with filling (Red Bean Paste, Curry chicken, Kaya, Coconut, Peanuts, Sweet Corn, Sambal Petai)
PAU is a traditional Chinese dim sum that is often eaten during breakfast with Chinese tea. It is made of fermented dough in a round shape of 75mm in diameter, and comes in with a variety of fillings, the savory and the sweet. The main property of a good Pau lies in its’ bouncy dough texture and snow-white color because it is steamed. The dough texture is fine with a soft and fluffy bite into delicious meat or sweet fillings. The whiteness of the dough is associated to form the first impression of a good Pau.
In many Chinese cultures, these buns are a popular food, and widely available. While they can be eaten at any meal, bao are often eaten for breakfast. Due to the long history of Chinese immigrants in Malaysia, the Malays have adopted these buns as their own. A particularly Malay form of the baozi (called pau in Malay) is filled with potato curry, chicken curry or beef curry that are similar to the fillings of Malay curry puffs. Some variants have a quail egg in the middle, in addition to the curry. Due to the Muslim beliefs of Malays, these buns are usually halal. You can find Malay stalls selling the buns by the roadside, at pasar malams (night markets), highway rest stops and pasar Ramadans (Ramadan food bazaars).
