Lotus seed bun is a Chinese pastry found in Hong Kong, Taiwan, China. It is sometimes available in overseas Chinatowns. It can be classified as a dim sum, though not exclusively so.

[edit] Preparation

Because the bun has a variety of different appearances, the dough especially, can be different depending on where it is made. The dough is generally made of similar substances like the ones used in char siu baau.
