Ingredients

  • 200 g All-purpose flour
  • 120 ml Warm water
  • 3 g Active dry yeast
  • 5 g Sugar
  • 2 g Salt
  • 2 Eggs
  • 30 ml Milk
  • 15 g Fresh chives
  • 10 g Butter
  • 1 g Black pepper(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast; add warm water and knead until smooth, then cover and let rise for 8 minutes.

  2. 2

    While the dough rests, whisk eggs with milk, chopped chives, butter, and optional black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat a non‑stick pan over medium heat, pour in the egg mixture, and scramble gently until just set, about 3 minutes; set aside.

    Divide the risen dough into 2 equal pieces, shape each into a round bun, and place a spoonful of the egg‑chive scramble in the center before sealing the dough around it.

  5. 5

    Steam the filled buns in a steamer over simmering water for 10 minutes until the dough is cooked through.

  6. 6

    Serve the warm Egg & Chive Pau immediately.
