Pandan Buns...香兰面包

Hi Hi everyone, Hope that you are having a great week ahead.
Do you still remember this Kopitiam milk buns....
With a little tweak you can have the same soft and nice texture buns but with another flavour. Today i am going to share a pandan flavour kopitiam buns. 

 
 
Nice and soft buns are ready for tea break!! These buns are so good to go with any spread or you can even have it on it own. YUM!!
 
 

 
 
     Pandan buns (香兰面包)
           adapted from my pervious kopitiam milk bun... here
        * makes 12 buns 

        **Ingredients for overnight sponge dough:
 
         215g high protein or bread flour
         125g plain water (cold)
         2g instant yeast (1/2 teaspoon)
 
        To do:
  • Add all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients to a rough dough by hands, Do not need to knead till smooth. Cover with cling film and immediately store in the fridge for overnight. (at least 12 hours)
  •  
    To prepare the buns:
     
    **1 quantity of above overnight sponge dough
    90g high protein flour
    30g egg (1/2 large egg)
    4g instant yeast (1/2 teaspoon)
    3g fine salt (1/2 teaspoon)
    60g sugar (i used 50g)
    45g butter (room temperature)
    1 Tablespoon concentrated pandan juice (cold)
    ( will share how i get the concentrate pandan juice in the coming post)
    
    To Do:
  • Tear the overnight sponge dough into pieces and add all ingredients except butter into the mixing bowl, knead till smooth dough.
  • Add in butter and knead until smooth and elastic. Cover with cling flim and set aside to proof till double in size (about 40 minutes)
  • Punch down the dough to expel air, equal divide the dought to 12 portions @ 50g each, shape into round balls. Place dough in a greased rectangle pan. Let it proof for  another 45 minutes or until  double its size.
 
 Punch down the dough to expel air from the dough. Divide it into 12 portions. Weight it into 50 gm per portion.

Roll it round then place it into a greased rectangle baking pan. (mine was 22.5cm width x 27cm lenght and 6cm depth) Put them a little bit far apart.
 
The round dough will stick to each other after proofing.

  • Bake at pre-heated oven at 170C for 20 minutes on low rack.
  • Tilt the buns out of the baking pan once it is out of the oven.
 
These pandan buns are soft and cottonny ..haha texture just like a cotton ball!!
Would you like to have a piece for tea?? ^_^
 
 
ENJOY!!

Shark Fin Dumpling ~鱼翅饺

This Shark Fin Dumpling (yu chi gow), is one of my favorite dumpling. Although it is named Shark Fin Dumpling, but they contain no actual shark fin in it. Some say the look and shape of the dumpling does look like shark fin and other do include in imitation shark fin, though. I am lucky to have spotted this long hibernating in the book shelf chinese dim sum book ‘香港地道小吃’ translated as 'Hong Kong Authentic Tapas' Well, Do, you find this look like Shark's Fin?? 看看形状像不像鱼翅呢??  Filling for the ingredients are prawn, mince meat, carrot, yam bean and black fungus. Get ready the filling and the wanton wrappers. This is the parade of my Shark's Fin dumpling ... lol Homemade parchment paper liner. Arrange them neatly into the bamboo steamer. HOT! HOT! From the steamer!! Loaded with filling ..YUM! ENJOY~ Shark Fin Dumpling (yu chi gow) (Scallop dumpling /Cilantro dumpling - depends which filling you using) Recipe adapted from  ‘香港地
