Step 4
Turn off the fire and then soak the pork belly within the soup for at least 2 hours. Reheat it before assembling.
Step 5
To make the bun, mix Baking Soda (1/2 tsp) , Instant Dry Yeast (1/2 tsp) , and All-Purpose Flour (2 3/4 cups) . Stir in Water (1/2 cup) . Stir the flour with chopsticks. Knead the dough until smooth. Cover with a wet cloth to rest for 30 minutes to 45 minutes, until the dough increase 1/3 in size.

Press the rolled log down and roll it into a disc that is 1/2-inch (1 1/2cm) thick. Shape it to a bowl with a hand.
Step 9
Preheat oven to 190 degrees C (375 degrees F).
Step 10
Heat up a pan. Place the bowl shaped dough in a pan to fry until slightly brown over medium fire. Turn over to fry the second side. Repeat the process to finish all the buns.

Transfer the buns to a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes so the breads are completely cooked through.
Step 12
Take out the meat and finely mince. If you like, add Fresh Cilantro (to taste) and Ground Cumin (to taste) .
