How To Eat Mantou (Square or Cloud-like Steamed Buns)

Hi foodies! I’m litte bit sad today but it won’t stop me from blogging about food, snack to all of you. Hope you always be cheerful in every single day. Okay, let me share to you about one of my favourite (you have read that this is my favourite foods for other foods too several times). It means that I love eating many foods. 

Ya, today I will give you such a simple tips to eat your mantou (square steamed buns). It’s similar with pao (steamed buns) but there is no filling inside. So, you can it them with you favourite jams, spreads, curry or you make mantou s sandwich. Mantou has white colour and slightly sweet taste. When I was childhood, I bought mantou from a seller near my house. The seller fried them in a medium pan until golden colour. I ate the white-choco colour and sweet version.

Luckily, I could  find the  plain flavour. I almost cry to get them easily haha since it’s rare to  find. First, we need to melt  margarine/butter in a small saucepan. Then, roast mantou in the saucepan when the colour turns to the golden brown, we must to do the same on other side. 

For dipping, I made something like a curry. We just need to saute minced garlic, chillies, potato slices, minced chicken then add water, salt, pepper, egg, soy sauce. Wait until it well-cooked.  If you finish frying the mantou and make the dippings, it’s done! You can dip your mantou into chicken curry-like dippings. After dipping your mantou in the chicken curry, the taste of mantou  is insanely amazing. It’s deliciously oily and salty as well. I like the crispness of my mantous too.

I like eating savoury foods, so it’s better than sweet version in my opinion. It’s up  to you either you add some jams in the middle of your mantou or make curry as your dippings.

I hope you enjoy this simple tips how to eat mantou from me.
