蒸包~ Steam Bao....

This is a very yummy kind of chinese food or I can said chinese snack "dian xing~ 点心". Steam bao,you can wrap all kind of filling inside. It can be savoury,spicy or sweet like red bean paste or peanut or even kaya. Its all depend on what do you like...

For me I like the meat and sengkuang type, it easy to prepare. My hubby likes the cha siew ones and my boys loves the red bean paste ones.
