Instructions

  • For the bread dough:
  • Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and let it stand for 5 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar and baking powder. Mix the yeast water and dry ingredients with oil in a stand mixer, knead for 10 minutes using a dough hook or until the dough becomes elastic and smooth.
  • Shape the dough into a ball and put it back in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise for 30-40 minutes, until doubled. Deflate the air from the dough and it's ready to use.
  • For Anman:
  • Mix Koshian with both oils.
  • Cut the prepared dough into 8 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Roll a ball flat into a 5" (12.5cm) round, and put 2 Tbsp Koshian mixture in the middle of the dough round. Pinch the dough to wrap the filling, and shape into a ball (watch our video to see exactly how). Repeat for the remaining dough and filling to make 8 Anman balls.
  • Place the Anman balls on 3" (7.5cm) parchment paper squares. Put them in a hot steamer (place them 2" or 5cm apart), and cook at medium high heat for 10- 12 minutes.
