Yogurt Dough (Lazy Bao)

A two-ingredient lazy bao dough (self-raising flour + Greek yoghurt). These steamed buns are fluffy with a crispy bottom, super simple to make, and unbelievably juicy. Source: myriadrecipes (video recipe).

Ingredients

250 gself-raising flour
150 gGreek yoghurt

Instructions

(Reconstructed classic method - the source is a video listing only the two ingredients.)

  1. In a bowl, combine the self-raising flour and Greek yoghurt. Mix, then knead into a smooth, soft dough. Rest 10-15 minutes.
  2. Divide the dough and roll each piece into a circle, add your chosen filling (or leave plain), and pleat/pinch shut to form buns.
  3. Steam over simmering water 12-15 minutes until fluffy. For a crispy bottom, finish the steamed buns bottom-side-down in a lightly oiled hot pan until golden. Garnish with chili oil and chopped chives.
