Ingredients:
- For the dough:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 tsp active dry yeast
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- For the filling:
- 1 cup finely chopped cabbage
- 1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
- 1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Slowly add the warm water and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Flatten each ball with a rolling pin and shape it into a small circle. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each circle and pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside.
4. Place the baozi on a steamer basket lined with parchment paper. Cover the steamer basket with a lid and steam the baozi for 15-20 minutes until they are fully cooked.
