My Dad used to make these when I was younger. I still crave them, but alas, my pork ‘n sausage eating days are over. Sigh.

This little beauty right here is what I crave at 3am. Its airy-yet-dense, pure white outer dough is slightly sweet, creating an addictive interplay with the garlicky, peppery ground pork tucked inside. A thin slice of Chinese sausage and quail egg add textural variety. I'm imagining holding this in one hand and a glass of Singha in the other. Banh wow!
