Wholemeal Steamed Bun (Steamed Bread) & Lentil soup

Brown rice, lentil & mushroom soup. Serve with steamed wholemeal bun.

The steamed buns are made of 500g wholemeal flour, 6g yeast, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons honey, 2 tablespoons olive oil and water. They can be easily made by using the bread machine (using the knead function only). If you don't have a bread machine, you can still use the grandmum method-- knead by hand!
These are usually part of our breakfast, but sometimes we take these for lunch or dinner. They can be served with mushroom soup, lentil soup, dry shrimp sambal, lentil curry, , kadala curry , vegetable or meat curry. We usually make plenty of them (half kg of flour or more) and keep them in freezer.

The wholemeal & rye bread is added with raisin, pumpkin and sunflower seeds. It's a high fibre bread.The bread is much heavier than the store's. But hubby and I have been used to the solid texture of this heavy loaf, so it tastes nice to us, especially when it's fresh from oven.
