Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl mix warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, and vegetable oil and knead until a soft dough forms.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Heat a skillet over medium heat with a small amount of oil. Add onion and garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Assemble the Dish: Add shredded cabbage, soy sauce, and black pepper to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until cabbage softens. Allow filling to cool slightly. Divide dough into portions, flatten each piece, place filling in the center, then seal to form buns.
- Cook to Perfection: Place the buns on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
- Finishing Touches: Allow buns to cool for a few minutes after baking so the filling settles.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy the soft bread with the savory cabbage filling.
Notes
- Finely shred the cabbage so it cooks evenly and fits easily inside the dough.
- Do not overfill the buns to prevent them from opening during baking.
- Allow the filling to cool slightly before assembling the buns.
- For extra shine brush the tops lightly with vegetable oil before baking.
