Today I will show you this bao call Ji Wo bao which I have it for dinner.
This unusual dish is sold by this roadside stall located at the roundabout at Desa Setapak area. It is made from the combination of Lo Mai Gai and Cha Siu bao
Lo Mai Gai is glutinous rice filled with chicken, Chinese mushrooms, Chinese sausage, scallions, and sometimes dried shrimp or salted egg.
Cha Siu bao is buns filled with barbecue-flavored Cha Siu pork.
When they combine together, they give birth to a dish called Ji Wo Bao. And that is how Ji Wo Bao is born.
Like Malaysia interracial marriages, we got Chindian, Baba Nyonya, and other types. Even food has interracial marriages.
They sell it for RM6.50 per bao. They even have a special packaging for this bao.
Here are pictures of my Ji Wo bao and its filling.
yummy! I thought it was a siopao hehe
