Fried Chicken:

1. Slice the chicken in to chunks
2. In a large bowl, add all the ingredients except the tapioca flour and mix well
3. Leave the chicken to marinade for 15 minutes
4. Add the tapioca flour into a bowl and dip the chicken pieces one by one until they are well covered
5. Preheat the pan and add enough oil for deep frying. Once the oil is hot start deep frying the chicken
6. If you want it to be extra crunchy, remove the chicken halfway (when light brown) and fry it again until golden.
7. Right after you remove the chicken from the oil, add any additional condiments that you like (e.g. pepper, chilli powder, plum powder, seaweed, etc.) and mix it

Bao

1. Mix all the ingredients together until it’s well combined and you get a smooth elastic soft dough. I used my KitchenAid stand mixer with a dough hook and mix it for about 15 minutes on low speed until it forms a smooth consistent dough ball. You can do this by hand but it may take a bit longer. 
2. Form a dough ball and leave it to rest in a large bowl covered by a damp cloth in a warm environment to rise for 1 hour (I like to leave it in the unheated oven)
3. Once the dough has risen to about 1.5-2 times it’s original size, kneed the dough until returns to the original size and is smooth again
4. Divide the dough into portions (approx 8 pieces)
5. Roll the portions into small dough balls and using a rolling pin, kneed the dough into small oval shapes
6. Using a tiny bit of oil, brush the middle of the oval and fold it in the middle
7. Preheat the steamer and place the baos in the steamer to cook for 15 mins

Once done, assemble the baos and garnish with your choice of toppings – Enjoy!
