In the famous words of All Might, "I am here!" Well, these delicious steamed buns are, anyway! In the last season of My Hero Academia, All Might treats his students to some steamed pork buns that he picked up from a convenience store (my fellow Americans: they are way nicer than the convenience stores we have in the States, haha!). 

Since I don't eat pork (as aforementioned in the recipe for Deku's katsu cutlet), I'll be using seitan in these instead, which has a great flavor that makes for a good pork replacement in dishes like this. And to save some time, we'll be using Pillsbury dough sheets to make the buns instead of hand-making the dough.

Ingredients

  • 6 oz seitan (I use Sweet Earth's traditional kind, since it's already in strips and is easy to dice)
  • 1 tbsp ginger
  • 1 tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 2 Pillsbury dough sheets 
  • 0.5 cup diced green onion
  • 0.5 cup diced mushroom
  • 0.5 cup diced cabbage

Instructions

  1. ​Dice your seitan and pan-fry it with ginger, soy sauce, and mirin until it starts to brown. 
  2. Mix your seitan in a bowl with mushroom, cabbage, and green onion.
  3. Cut your dough into balls and flatten so they form circles. 
  4. Hold one circle in your hand. In the center of the circle, add a scoop of the filling, then use your free hand to pinch up the edges of the dough so it creates pleats that cover the filling. When the pleats are completed, give the top a pinch and gentle twist. 
  5. Repeat with all of the dough. When complete, place them on parchment paper and let steam for 10-15 minutes (depends on the size of your buns).

These were pretty difficult for me to make since this was my first time attempting to make steamed buns in this style, but they still came out really tasty despite not being the prettiest! I think the biggest issue with mine was that I made my buns too small.

​If you make this and your food comes out prettier than mine, please tag me in your posts so I can can be impressed by your hard work!
