Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Coconut oil
- 0.5 pounds Boneless pork shoulder, diced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce (sugar-free)
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup Cabbage, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Green onion, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
Instructions
In a medium pan, heat coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add diced pork shoulder and cook until lightly browned.
Add garlic and onion to the pan and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Stir in soy sauce, oyster sauce, cabbage, green onion, and black pepper. Cook until the cabbage wilts and the mixture is well combined. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt.
Add the melted cheese mixture and a beaten egg to the dry ingredients. Knead by hand or in a mixer until a smooth dough forms.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and flatten each into a disk. Place about 1 tablespoon of the pork filling in the center of each disk.
Carefully fold and seal the dough around the filling, forming a smooth ball. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
Place the siopao balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let the toasted siopao cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
