Ingredients9 items
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 3 red chili peppers, sliced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 stalks of kari leaves
- 1/2 cup milk
- a little chicken stock
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 slices cheese
- mini mantou buns (frozen)
Instructions
1
Mince 4 cloves of garlic and slice 3 red chili peppers.
2
In a pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced chili peppers and minced garlic; sauté until fragrant but not too long—just until they are slightly softened.
3
Add 2 stalks of kari leaves to the pan and toss to combine. Sauté for another minute or so.
4
Pour in 1/2 cup of milk and a little chicken stock, then stir well.
5
Add 1/2 cup of sweetened condensed milk and 2 slices of cheese; mix until everything is combined and slightly thickened, being careful not to make it too salty.
6
Head to the freezer section of the supermarket and find mini mantou buns. These are like marshmallows but not marshmallow.
7
Cook the mantou buns in a pan or microwave them until they become soft and fluffy; about 2-3 minutes per side or as per package instructions.
8
Serve hot, topping with the buttermilk sauce. Enjoy!
