How big is big? The size of a Dai Pau can range from 11 cm to a whopping 14.5 cm. Prices vary from RM2.50 to RM5.70. So what’s in it? Basically, marinated chicken pieces cooked with Chinese mushroom, sengkuang(yam bean) and sometimes cilantro for added flavour; a hard-boiled egg; and for some also Chinese sausage and roast or minced pork. This scrumptious filling is then wrapped in white fluffy dough, similar to regular paus except that this is humongous. Generally, not something that one would order with dim sum, but a meal in itself.
