Imitation Momofuku Bun 馒头夹烧肉
An imitation of David Chang's Momofuku buns
I think David Chang's signature dish, the Momofuku buns, needs no introduction.
Here, I am just sharing my humble attempt to imitate David Chang's wonderful Momofuku bun.
Early in the morning on the first day of the Chinese New Year as I looked into my fridge, the large slab of left-over roast pork from the Chinese New year eve caught my eye. I was too bleary-eyed to cook a meal that morning and I needed time to pack for our family trip to Hong Kong and Macau. I remembered I've got some Chinese buns stocked up in my freezer and I have been wanting to try out David Chang's Momofuku bun ever since I read about its rave review!
I took out the roast pork and the buns but I didn't feel like making cucumber pickles so I just sliced the cucumber into thin slices and prayed that everything would turn out well.
Well, the buns were great ! Yummy !
Ingredients
1 packet of Chinese buns1 small cucumber
10 thick slices of roast pork, about 1 cm thick
2 tbsp BBQ sauce
1 tbsp chilli sauce ( optional )
Instructions
1. Steam the buns for about 5 minutes.
2. Pry open a bun and spread some BBQ sauce on one side of the bun.
3. Place a slice of roast pork between the two flaps of the bun
