Knead the dough

Inherited from Malaysia's Chinese communities, pau are soft steamed buns made from a yeasted dough with no added fat during cooking. Needing no frying or baking, they make a light choice for breakfast tables and packed lunches.
Mix the flour, sugar, instant dry yeast, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the lukewarm water and sunflower oil and knead into a smooth dough, then let it prove for 45 minutes.
Divide the proved dough into eight equal pieces and roll into balls, placing a small square of baking paper under each, then rest for another 15 minutes.
Steam the pau buns in a covered steamer over high heat for 15 minutes, checking occasionally without lifting the lid too much.
Don't lift the steamer lid too often while cooking, or the buns will wrinkle on top. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten).
If you don't have a steamer, setting a perforated colander over boiling water and covering it gives a similar result.
