Great base recipe! Super quick and simple to make, easy to modify to your liking as well! I doubled the amount of ginger, garlic, and thai chilis because we like extra spicy and extra flavorful. also did a loose chop on the peppers because we like the big chunks as well. This is a true go-to recipe!

The dough was so much easier to make than I expected. It was actually fun to make and it turned into a really hilarious family event to see who could make the worst shaped bun! We are FAR from professionals in this house so it was really entertaining for us to try and make these look even remotely normal. After we let them sit and after steaming though, they really did look like it was done by someone who knew what they were doing. I changed up the filling and used ground pork with sauteed onions and cabbage, sesame oil and hoisin sauce and it came out great! I will definitely make these again!
