Mustard-Glazed Beef Bao Buns

Bao buns are a traditional Asian dish that has been reinterpreted by cuisines around the world – this version is made with Hungarian flavors, featuring mustard-glazed beef. The distinctive flavor of mustard and the silky balance of honey give a special taste to the juicy beef. As the mustard sauce caramelizes in the hot pan, the aromas of garlic and sesame oil fill the kitchen - and we know that a truly special dish is being prepared. The balance of soft bao dough, spicy-sweet meat, and fresh vegetables is perfect in every bite. This recipe is ideal for weekend dinners, special occasions, or even a themed fusion night. Serve with roasted sweet potatoes or homemade coleslaw to make it even more substantial!

    Preparation Steps

    1

    For the bao dough, combine the flour, yeast, and sugar in a bowl, then add the lukewarm water. Knead until smooth, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    2

    Divide the risen dough into 8-10 portions, shape into ovals, fold in half, and place in a steamer lined with parchment paper. Steam for 10-12 minutes, until the dough is springy and cooked through.

    3

    In a skillet, heat the cooked, shredded beef with the mustard, honey, garlic, and sesame oil. Cook, stirring, for about 6-8 minutes, until the sauce coats the meat and lightly caramelizes.

    4

    Carefully open the bao buns. Spoon in the mustard-glazed beef filling, add cucumber slices, and sprinkle with fresh, finely chopped green onions.

    5

    Serve immediately while warm. You can offer extra mustard or a slightly spicy sauce for an even more exciting flavor experience.
