Note and tips..
I notice it is steam sweet potato puree sometime may be wetter. That's the reason why the measurement for the water  may deffer alittle bit you got to take note on this

If you want the pau skin to be more firmer then you may change from 200g pau flour to 250 g pau flour and reduce the sweet potato puree from 150g to 100 g instead. This may make the pau skin to be slightly firmer ..hmm like those sold outside. I may tried maybe just maybe for my next round .lol


But I find this recipe pau dough is soft and fluffy just very nice for me.. yummy delicious
