1 package pickled herring
1 pcs carrot
1 pcs mango
1 pcs red chili
1 pcs Red onion
1 pcs spring onion
hoisin sauce
1 pot/container fresh coriander
1 package bao bun

Method

Dice red onion and pickled herring, and mix together with hoisin sauce. If the hoisin sauce is a bit strong, you can add a splash of lime juice to the sauce.
Cut mango and carrot into thin sticks.
Slice spring onions and chili.
Steam the bao buns.
Place some of the pickled herring mixture at the bottom, then top with vegetables and cilantro. They are ready to eat immediately.

Tip!
To steam bao buns, you can use a pot with boiling water and place a bamboo steamer with the buns on top of the pot. Alternatively, place a rack inside a pot with water, bring to a boil, then set a plate with buns on the rack. Cover with a lid and steam for 10-12 minutes. Make sure they do not come into contact with the water.
