Vegetarian Manapua with Mushrooms & Red Bean Paste

By Leave a Comment

I wanted to go Hawaiian vegetarian style with this one and make Mushroom Manapua. Manapua is essentially the hawaiian Bao! Manapua literally means delicious pork thing but like all food, over time, different fillings have been added!
Today we are going to make Mushroom manapua and stick to the end for a Red Bean Manapua

Check out the last time I used Red Bean Paste in my Mochi!!
