pork bun
Meat-filled dim sum
A pork bun is a filled bread popular in Chinese cuisine, consisting of a soft, often slightly sweet dough wrapped around seasoned pork.
The Cantonese char siu bao comes in two main styles: steamed buns with fluffy white exteriors, or baked versions with a golden glazed top.
We ordered a basket of pork buns with our dim sum.
