Chinese Buns

For these Chinese buns, we loosely followed the recipe from here to make the dough. It has the following ingredients:
  • 1 package dried yeast or 1 cake fresh yeast
  • 1 cup lukewarm water
  • 4 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar (we used less)
  • 2 tablespoons Crisco or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seed oil (we didn't use this)

We made a vegetarian filling with the following ingredients:
  • 3 eggs, scrambled
  • 4 carrots, shredded
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 head of a small cabbage, finely chopped
You can do all the chopping and shredding with a food processor.
