Pau recipe

Here's the recipe for making fluffy pau.
Things to know. Shortening must be used. Vinegar in the water used for steaming must be added to prevent the pau from being yellow in colour due to the oxidation from the baking powder.

Ingredients:-
All purpose flour 500g
Baking powder 1 tbsp
Instant dry yeast 11g
Sugar 125g
Cold water 220mls
Shortening 50g
Pau filling- whatever you desire i.e. BBQ chicken, peanut butter + sesame seed, Cream corn custard.

Method:-
Add flour, baking powder, yeast, sugar together.
Then add water and mix dough for 5 minutes.
Then add shortening and mix dough for another 10 minutes.
Rest dough for 15minutes.
Then knead dough for 15minutes and rest dough for another 15minutes.
Divide dough into small pieces eg 30g.
Roll them out flat and add filling.
Rest dough for 15 minutes in baking paper.
Then steam for 10-12minutes in steamer. (Bamboo tray advisable)
