The Failed 流沙包 Wannabe

1st attempt at 流沙包 failed, producing instead, 咸蛋黄包. I wanted to the filling to be savoury rather than sweet. So I made changes to the original recipe but rather than the flowing filling so desired, it turned out pretty viscous & failed to "flow". Oh well, I'll make a batch with the original recipe next time.

Salted egg yolk mixture.
Refrigerate till firm enough to form balls & freeze.
Make into buns.
Erm... failed molten lava salted yolk bun.

  2. I got the recipe online. I think it calls for 3 salted yolks, some coconut milk, cornstarch, milk powder, icing sugar. I took out the icing sugar & milk powder (becoz I don't use it & there's no point buying when the recipe only requires a tbsp) & used 10 yolks. Lol.

    But hubs preferred the sweet version so think I'll just stick to the recipe for my next attempt.
