INSTRUCTIONS

DIRECTIONS: In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water; blend in sugar,
oil and Salt. Let stand in a warm place until bubbly (about 15 mins).
Add flour and mix until dough holds together. Place dough on a  lightly
floured board and knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 to  10 mins).
Place in a greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place  until
doubled in bulk (about 1 hour 15 mins). Meanwhile, prepare pork
filling; let cool and set aside. Turn dough out onto a lightly  floured
board and knead for 1 min. Shape into a rectangle. With a  floured
knife, cut rectangle in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise 6  times to
make 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a round about 4  1/2" in
diameter. Press outside edges of dough to make them slightly  thinner
that the rest of the round. Place about 2 tbsp of filling in  center of
each round. Pull edges of dough up around filling and twist  to seal.
Place each bun, sealed side down, on a 3" square of foil.  Cover and
let rise in a warm place until puffy and light (about 30  mins). Set in
steamer over boiling water. Cover and steam for 12 to  15 mins. (when
done, tops of buns should be glazed and smooth). Serve  warm. Pork
Filling: Cut 1 1/2 lbs boneless lean pork into 1/2" cubes.  Season with
2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger, 2  tsp sugar and
2 tbsp Chinese soy sauce. In a bowl, combine 2 tsp  sugar, 1 tbsp
cornstarch, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp dry sherry and 1/4  cup water;
reserve. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok or wide frying pan over  high heat.
When oil is hot, add pork and stirfry until browned (about  5 mins).
Add 1 medium size chopped onion and continue to stir frying  until
onion is limp (about 2 mins). Stir cornstarch mixture, add to  pork and
cook, stirring, until sauce bubbly and thickens. Cool. From:  GAEW
