Combine flour and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Add the milk mixture, oil to the flour; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough until smooth.

Flatten each piece and fill with your favourite jam or other fillings; fold the dough over to seal.

Shape into balls and place them in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper.
