Crispy Fried Chicken Bao

Bao Buns

Steamed bao bun filled with crispy fried chicken, fresh herbs and house sauce. (1 piece)

Product information

Ingredients

Steamed bao bun, crispy fried chicken, cucumber spear, shredded carrot, fresh coriander, sliced red chilli, crispy fried shallots, house sauce.

Food history

While folded bao buns (gua bao) originated as a Taiwanese street food staple, they have become incredibly popular in modern Vietnamese fusion dining. The soft, pillowy steamed bun acts as the perfect vehicle for the satisfying crunch and savoury flavours of crispy fried chicken.

Allergens

Contains gluten (wheat bun, chicken coating, soy sauce) and soy. May contain egg and dairy depending on the chicken batter. Prepared in a kitchen that also handles peanuts, tree nuts, fish sauce, shellfish, and sesame.

Storage

Best eaten immediately while the bun is soft and the chicken is crispy. If needed, store leftover components separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

Preparation

If refrigerated, separate the bun, chicken, and fresh garnishes before reheating to prevent the bun from becoming soggy.

Cooking

Reheat the fried chicken in an air fryer or oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 5-7 minutes until hot and crisp. Gently warm the bun in a steamer for 1-2 minutes or microwave with a damp paper towel for 15 seconds.

Serving

Place the hot crispy chicken inside the warmed bun. Top with the house sauce, cucumber, carrot, fresh herbs, chilli, and crispy shallots. Serve immediately.
