Equipment

  • Steamer
  • wok or pan

Ingredients

  • 2 Zespri SunGold Kiwifruit
  • rainbow carrots sliced
  • radish sliced
  • coriander
  • 6 pre-made buns for steaming

Method

  • Slice the kiwis and vegetables and roughly tear the coriander.
  • Cut a circular piece of baking parchment big enough to fully line a steamer.
