I’m ashamed to say that I had very little input in the creation of this dish. I was working, sorry Sue. It took Sue most of the day as some of the ingredients are not available without Gluten. So she made them from scratch.

Building your Buns:-

(8) Knead the dough again on a floured surface and then divide into 8 even pieces.
(9) Roll each portion into a ball in your hands.

(11) On a floured surface roll each ball out to about 6mm thick.
(12) Line a tray with Parchment.
(13) Fill each Bun with the cooled filling and seal well so the filling can’t escape.
