Directions/方法 chicken and potatoes curry milk buns– night before making buns: Mix all ingredients of sponge dough till a rough dough forms (I use KA mixer), cover with cling film and store in the fridge for overnight
制作面包的前一晚(准备功夫):将隔夜发面团材料放入容器中,混合至成面团后盖上保鲜膜、隔夜冷藏

  • next day – prepare filling – Heat oil in a wok, sauté onion, garlic and shallots till aroma
    第二天,准备馅料 ~ 热锅冷油,将洋葱、蒜蓉和红葱头爆香

– Add in curry paste & curry leaves, stir till fragrance. Add in chicken and potatoes, mix well
拌入咖喱酱料和咖喱叶,炒至出香味儿后加入鸡肉和土豆。拌匀

– Add in enough water to cover the chicken and potatoes, cook over low medium heat till potatoes tendered. Set aside to cool
加入足够的水量覆盖鸡肉和土豆,以小火焖煮至土豆变软。熄火、冷却

  • meantime, prepare dough. Tear the overnight sponge dough into pieces and add all ingredients except butter in a mixing bowl, knead till smooth dough (I use KA mixer at speed 2-3)
    馅料冷却当儿准备面团 ~ 将发面团撕成小团儿,放入容器中、加入主面团所有食材 (除黄油)。搓揉至成光滑面团 (我用了厨师机以速度2-3搅拌)

– Add in the butter and knead until dough is smooth, shinning and elastic. Cover with cling film and set aside to proof till double in size
加入黄油,搓至拓展性。盖上保鲜膜、让其发酵至双倍大

– Punch down the dough to expel air, divide into 50g portions and mould into round balls, rest for 10mins
面团排气,分割成50克等份,搓成小圆形,休面10分钟

– Flatten the dough ball into a round disc, spoon filling in the middle, wrap and seal. Roll in ball shape and gently press to form a disc shape. Place on a baking tray. Let it proof for another 45mins
面团擀平,勺入馅料,封口捏紧。面团搓成圆形,轻轻压扁。整型后的面包放到烤盘上进行二次发酵,约45分钟

– Wrap each bun with pandan leaf that secured with toothpick. Egg wash the top of the buns, and place a piece of curry leaf on top
用一片香兰叶裹上一个面包,以牙签扎实。面包涂抹鸡蛋液,在摆上一片咖喱叶做装饰

– Bake at pre-heated oven at 180C for 15mins
送入预热之180摄氏度烤箱烤15分钟即可

Personal notes/温馨小贴士:  chicken and potatoes curry milk buns– my dough (not the overnight sponge dough) was a little dry after mixing everything ~ hence i added  an additional 1/2 tbsp of milk. the dough did come together
我混合后的面团(既是发酵面团和主面团)稍微偏干,所以我另加入了半大匙牛奶。这回就刚刚好了哈

  • the rectangular shape in the middle was formed by placing a rectangle-shaped cut out paper in the middle of the bun before coating bun with bread crumb. japanese characters “カレ一” (meaning curry) are painted using cocoa paste with a toothpick (mix extra dark cocoa powder with a bit of hot water). “leaves” on buns are pumpkin seeds
    我免了原博客的装饰方式 ~ 自己裁剪了一张长方形的烘焙纸,摆放在面团的正中央、然后刷上蛋液,裹上面包糠。撕下烘焙纸、用牙签以黑可可酱在方格中写了日 “カレ一”(也就是咖喱的意思),最后粘上两颗瓜子(黑可可酱 - 过筛后的黑可可粉加入一点热水混合即可)

  • i used 25-28g of filling for each bun (still have half a big bowl of filling leftover)
    个面团中我裹入了25-28克馅料 (做完后还有半大碗剩余馅料)

  • my buns were baked for 16 mins ~ first batch baked throughout uncovered, and second batch was tented 12 mins after baking (which resulted in a fairer top)
    我的面包烤了16分钟 ~ 第一批烘焙过程没有盖上锡纸,第二批在烘焙 12分钟后盖上锡纸,所以没那么上色
