Water Dough:-250g all purpose flour
-80g water
-80g oil
-1/2 tsp 5 spice powder
-1 tsp salt
*Kneed everything together, rest 1/2 hour and divide into 10 portions.
Oil Dough:
-100g all purpose flour
-40-50g oil
*Slowly add oil into flour to make a dough. Divide into 10 portions.
Filling:
-1/2 lb char siu
-1/2 lb minced pork
-1/2 onion
-3 shitake mushrooms

What to Do:
Take a portions of the water dough and use it to wrap the oil dough. Roll dough flat and fold into thirds (like folding a letter). Repeat this process a few more times before using the dough to wrap a portion of the filling. Continue with the same process for the remaining dough and filling.

tt,
Hi how are you? It's a long time since I came to your blog.
The dough will have a tendency to develop gluten if not careful during the rolling /folding stage. Maybe you might try to use 1/2 bread flour+ 1/2 all purpose flour in dough A
