Time 20m

Yield 4 buns

Number Of Ingredients 7

water, for steaming
4 unbaked flaky canned biscuits
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
4 slices Pickled Vegetables.
4 slices Glazed Pork Belly
fresh cilantro
fresh mint leaf

Steps:

  • Fill a wide, high-sided skillet with 2 inches (5 cm) of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Line a bamboo steamer with parchment paper and cut slits in it to allow steam to escape.
  • Meanwhile, gently roll out the biscuits into 3-inch (7.62 cm) rounds. If desired, use a cutter or glass to cut out uniform circles, discarding the scraps. Spray the biscuits with nonstick spray and fold in half.
  • Set the steamer basket over the boiling water. Add the biscuits to the basket, spacing evenly. Cover and steam for 5-7 minutes, until cooked through and puffed.
  • Gently transfer the buns to a wire rack to cool slightly.
  • Fill each bun with pickled vegetables, a slice of pork belly, cilantro, and mint.
  • Enjoy!
